As a member of FNB Cleveland I wanted to encourage other Clevelanders to donate if you can.

Anyone wanna buy a lighthouse?

Luna's getting a new location downtown! They make good stuff, should be a good fit. On W. 9th, edge of Warehouse/Flats.

Krish Harsh, dipshit liberal, is complaining here that 1/3 of the people who applied for this job were rejected. Can you name a single other job where 1/3 of applicants being rejected would be seen as needlessly strict? It shows that the standard thought process is simply to get as many violent thugs on the street with guns and badges as possible so they can uphold the violence upon with American class society rests. I appreciate the city's restraint here and the reduction in cops in the street it has lead to.We are all safer with fewer cops on the street.

Tawana, a resident of Woodhill Estates, works out every day. She makes an effort to provide her grandchildren with nutritious options but finds it challenging because there aren’t many healthy options in the nearby businesses. She does make use of the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority (CMHA) mobile pantry, which brings fruits and vegetables to Woodhill Estates once a month. But that’s just one day. When you’re fighting to pay for your daily expenditures and get through the week, she says, it’s difficult to grab a bus to get to the closest grocery store – Simon’s Supermarket on Buckeye Road, over a mile away.

As Dan Gilbert’s real estate firm gets ready to roll out the details of phase one of its riverfront development, a neighboring fixture on the banks of the Cuyahoga River since 1894 may not be around much longer. The long-closed Cleveland Thermal steam heating plant, 2274 Canal Rd., along with possibly other properties of Cleveland Thermal Generation LLC are in the process of being acquired, according to a real estate source.

It would take someone with deep pockets to acquire those properties for cash. And the prize property is the Canal Road plant that’s located next to a development hot zone. The plant is closed, rusting away and an eyesore — not something that’s befitting the $3.5 billion vision Gilbert and his Detroit-based Bedrock Real Estate have for the neighboring riverfront below Tower City Center. Demolishing the Canal Road plant would require significant clean-up costs, but it would allow Bedrock to start anew here.

We hear the jokes, yes, but

Cleveland:

-Has a metro
-Has a good BRT system
-Has a great history of manufacturing and industry
-Never fully got rid of their streetcars and converted the last two lines to light rail
-Has what looks to be pretty affordable housing
-Has this dope-ass arcade and many other cool architectural features

Cleveland was once a very large industrial powerhouse, and capitalist disinvestment in the city has devastated some parts of it to a huge degree. That cannot be overlooked. But the city has now become a smaller city with big-city features and history. Big shoutout to Cleveland! Go check out https://hexbear.net/c/cleveland@midwest.social for more Cleveland content.

Since the end of 2019, the Woodhill Community Co-op has held free laundry days and community care pop-up events, distributing laundry supplies, masks, and household products to neighbors. This week, the co-op is holding its first conference to raise funds for its long-term goal of starting a cooperatively owned laundromat, cafe, and gathering space in the Buckeye-Woodhill neighborhood.

Funding for the Woodhill Co-op Conference came from a surprise $25,000 grant from the Saint Luke’s Foundation. The co-op voted on how to use the money, which was the largest sum it had ever received at one time. After deciding on a conference for educating and networking with the community, the co-op team members started organizing the event in January. The conference will be the co-op’s first event raising money for startup costs, Bulger said

A Parma real estate investor and his development team won conceptual approval yesterday from a local design review panel to convert the vacant, century-old Independent Order of Odd Fellows Temple at 3409 Broadview Rd. in the heart of Cleveland’s Old Brooklyn neighborhood into loft-style apartments. The team will then refine their plans into more detail schematic designs for review by the Planning Commission’s citywide design-review committee prior to construction.

Two historic buildings are proposed to be torn down for a 16-story, mixed-use development in Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood, despite information that financing, including the use of air rights, for the high-rise is still being finalized.

Don't recognize any of the "best activist" nominees but it should be Mariah Crenshaw.

Best insta follow should be skrticx but not an option

Literally every "best neighborhood" option is on the west side because Scene is white as hell

Few other highlight votes because there's a million categories and I skipped most.

Antiques: All Things For You

Art Supply: Upcycle

Hobby and Games Store: Critical Hit

Dive Bar: Little Rose (awesome vegan food)

Then I mostly voted for vegan stuff and why the fuck is Townhall a candidate for best vegan restaurant? All the other candidates are fully vegan and extremely good but that place has meat all over the menu. Fuck the Georges.

Probably my favorite restaurant of all time. We used to go up to the West Side Market and go get lunch at Sokolowski's afterwards. I would totally fuck up a plate of their pierogis right now.

We'll take it! Guardians Win 4-2

Some neat internet history. I wasn't around for the Cleveland free-net so I'm learning about this now.

For those of you not in the loop: there's a Cleveland personal injury lawyer who's billboards usually say "Misny makes them pay".
