Clinic’s next big parking garage reveals growing pains

The largest structure on the Cleveland Clinic’s Main Campus isn’t the new 1-million-square-foot Neurological Building on Carnegie Avenue. Instead it’s the 1.56-million-square-foot East 89th Street Parking Garage just west of the Neuro Building. And immediately west of that, on the former site of the Cleveland Play House, Clinic officials are reportedly considering another large parking garage that has transit advocacy groups calling for healthier options.

Go Browns! But where?

One of the most anticipated games in my early Cleveland Browns fandom came three days after Thanksgiving in 1979. The 8-4 Browns faced the hated Steelers at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh where the Browns had yet to win. The Steelers were going for their fourth Super Bowl in the 1970s and the Browns were trying to get back to their glories of the prior two decades.

GCRTA’s new railcars start production

Manufacturing work has begun this month on the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority’s (GCRTA) new railcars, said members of the authority’s management team overseeing the replacement of its aging railcar fleet. But until enough railcars are delivered, which won’t happen until 2027, the public will still be riding the oldest trains among any transit authority in the nation.

Another groundbreaking, in Case you want more

A second major groundbreaking event is coming later this month in Cleveland, following that of the Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center. But this one could be a little confusing to those familiar with Case Western Reserve University’s (CWRU) $300 million Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Building (ISEB). They may be excused to wonder if this project hasn’t already been underway for some time — because it has.

George’s third billboard lands on Opportunity Corridor

A George family-owned billboard that metastasized into three as a result of a 2023 court settlement has found its third and final landing spot in Cleveland. That third billboard site is a piece of a city-owned parcel on the Opportunity Corridor near Quincy Avenue that is unlikely to be developed with any other uses, according to a city official. Title to the land will be transferred to the Georges.

CWRU’s South Residential expansion stops

As Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) approaches its 200th anniversary, just two years away, the growing college has just one megaproject on its syllabus for Cleveland’s University Circle — the $300 million Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Building. So CWRU’s bicentennial legacy is to do what it has often done — prudently build when it needs to, not when it wants to. Even so, news of what the university is not building may come as a surprise.

Library Lofts turning next page at Circle Square

With a partial occupancy permit from the city awarded, arriving residents are opening the book on Library Lofts — the latest building to be offered at the Circle Square district of Cleveland’s University Circle. Like a novel with a thick plot, progress on the apartment building-over-public library has taken lots of turns, though it’s not done yet. But this page-turner is almost there. And what a poetic conclusion it may turn out to be.
