Thread: Cleveland Urban Development Update

    Designs released today for nuCLEus which will now be 54 stories.


    The view looking down Prospect. nuCLEus does not demo any historic buildings and is in fact preservating two storefronts (including a historically significant one that used to be the Rock City Record Rendezvous).


    The parking garage concealed and tucked away in the back of the development, fronting the Rally Alley behind the Q and Progressive Field.


    Landmarks Commission objected to a skybridge over a plaza in the block interior (not even across a street!) and the resulting design compromise was the skybridge became a cantilevered structure with leasable space.


    Skyline view from I-90. Level with the 930 foot tall Key Bank Tower.

    Cleveland is seeing a high-rise boom. Good write-up here: http://neo-trans.blogspot.com/2017/0...ing-binge.html




    A minimum of 4 new high-rises are underway, could be as many as 9-10 depending on how the dust settles. It's a lot like OKC's "mystery tower(s)" years, except that Cleveland isn't an energy market. The biggest variables here are what Medical Mutual, Cuyahoga County govt, and Sherwin-Williams end up doing, none of which are going anywhere. The downtown core has also shed millions of Class C office SF due to the state's historic tax credit program (loft conversions comprising most of the 15,000 downtown units).

    Cleveland has always built skyscrapers every few years, even during the dark days of the 90s when most families finally left for the suburbs, still built the Midwest's tallest tower outside Chicago (Key Bank). Very different environment in Cleveland now with thousands of apartments being built each year for the last five years. Very possible that Cleveland shows slight population growth, even with the tragic black flight going on across the east side.

    Since Cleveland can't not have controversy and in-fighting, right now the focus is on the $282 million Q renovation, half of which will be public funded, the rest of which will be publicly-financed. There is an army of African American pastors pressuring the city and Dan Gilbert to match the public funding for high-crime neighborhood initiatives. I hope they can make both happen.
