They're adding one more unit to the Clarence Court Townhomes project. It's being advertised on PURE. Check out the link below for renderings and a site plan. It's got quite a funky design, I'll say that.

So Phase II consists of one unit?

Person, I don't thinnk anyone asked what would happen in Pittsburgh with this situation, and I don't think anyone really gives a single damn.

Well as much as I wish it wasn't the case (sorry, I can be a noise nazi at times), kids can't be rounded up for simply "hanging out". And yes, yes indeed - kids can hang out in Pittsburgh and get away with it

No no, May Day. Don't you read what he says? Per Person's posts, Pittsburgh's positively perfect!

Pshaw!

This is off the current topic, but I would love to open up a small gourmet grocer in Tremont in one of the small storefronts that are vacant down there. Something along the lines of Dean and Deluca but obviously more local and one-of-a-kind.

X · « **Reply #114 on:** August 08, 2007, 02:18:08 PM »

That's a great idea. Are you seriously considering it, or just speculating about what would be nice to see?

Vulpster03 · « **Reply #115 on:** August 08, 2007, 03:04:05 PM »

I actually think a local twist on Dean & Deluca would be great in the 515 Euclid building on Euclid. It looks like great space, great location, and a lot of visibility. It would certainly draw a huge lunch crowd, but I would think even breakfast and dinner times would be good too.

jamiec · « **Reply #116 on:** August 09, 2007, 01:28:10 AM »

Well, I wouldn't say seriously considering it because I don't have the resources at this point. It'd cost quite a bit of money to get all the equipment you'd need for that sort of operation. But maybe in the future... I haven't done any research on it yet.

willyboy · « **Reply #117 on:** August 09, 2007, 03:44:24 AM »

That would require you to stay in Cleveland of course....?

cle2032 · « **Reply #118 on:** August 09, 2007, 05:45:18 AM »

I agree, Tremont needs some sort of grocery store. It's "isolated" from the rest of the city and it's unfortunate that such a "hip" community can't walk to a grocery store! I don't think walking along Abbey is an acceptable alternative-esp. during unfriendly weather.

MayDay · « **Reply #119 on:** August 09, 2007, 05:55:02 AM »

Keep in mind there's a Circulator that goes through and drops people off in easy walking distance to Dave's (I believe they even have an arrangement where you show your receipt and the ride is free), the West Side Market, and soon (though I won't set foot in there), Wal-Mart at Steelyard Commons. There's also a seasonal farmers market near Luckys Cafe on Starkweather, and several convenient stores (of varying quality/selection). I suppose a full-service grocery might be good but another question is - where would you put it?

8ShadesofGray · « **Reply #120 on:** August 09, 2007, 07:30:29 AM »

I'm fairly certain that they're hoping to renovate Brown's Market over by Lucky's into some kind of organic grocery (in addition to the outdoor farmer's market across the street). Can't remember where I heard that first, but I heard it confirmed by a very reliable source who made it sound like it was fairly definite. Anyone else recall this?

Could that have anything to do with the fact that they sell Dortmunder 12-packs for an outrageous $14.99 (everyday low prices my arse)?

Vulpster03 · « **Reply #122 on:** August 09, 2007, 02:38:38 PM »

Walmart has the lowest prices for everything EXCEPT tobacco and alcohol. I've never understood why, but its definately the case.

Maybe because they don't buy the alcohol and tobacco from China, Malaysia or Zimbabwe and don't know how to buy/distribute from domestic suppliers!

jonmoxon · « **Reply #124 on:** August 11, 2007, 01:23:43 PM »

Don't get me started on Wal-mart, fellas. Or, as my dad likes to call it, "The Chinese Army Factory Outlet Store". I love that.
Shop at Target instead.

Vulpster03 · « **Reply #125 on:** August 11, 2007, 02:26:14 PM »

why is target any better?

David · « **Reply #126 on:** August 11, 2007, 03:08:24 PM »

Target pays their employees a lot more (like 12 bucks an hour I believe..), whereas Wal-mart pays close to minimum wage, especially in the small towns they exploit.

I looked Tremont up on google earth; wow, the place looks really isolated.

KJP · « **Reply #127 on:** August 11, 2007, 04:47:10 PM »

Not really. Maybe for walking it is, but it's easy to bike to/from and transit is frequent from Ohio City, the Rapid station and Old Brooklyn.

Visible Voice in Tremont offers bookstore relief
Friday, August 10, 2007

Laura DeMarco
Plain Dealer Columnist

Book some time to stop at Visible Voice during tonight's Tremont art walk.

It's not a gallery, but it is one of the neighborhood's most interesting new spaces -- and Shop Talk's favorite stop during last month's art trek. Crowds buzzed, book lovers browsed, an author signed, and wine and cheese were served with a partylike vibe at the cozy-hip restored home on tree-lined Kenilworth Avenue.

boneill · « **Reply #131 on:** March 27, 2008, 06:29:36 AM »

Does anyone have any details on the work that is going on to the old Browns Market down Starkweather from Lucky's, is it going to be a grocer, like suggested? If so that would be great finally a grocery store that I could walk to. Also does anyone know how many units are going to be built as part of Starkweather Place, does it involve just the corner where they are currently building? They are making quite a bit of progress and already have one sold sign in the windows.

lewarctj · « **Reply #132 on:** March 27, 2008, 06:33:52 AM »

There were articles out a while stating that it was going to be a home-made chocolate store - Lilly's or something like that and that the owners were going to live above it.

MayDay · « **Reply #133 on:** March 27, 2008, 06:37:21 AM »

According to the info on Howard Hanna's site, Starkweather Place will have at least six units. Not sure if it's the first phase or if that's it.

jsz65 · « **Reply #134 on:** March 27, 2008, 08:05:18 AM »

The most recent neighborhood newsletter said there will be 31 units when completed

BK · « **Reply #135 on:** March 27, 2008, 11:51:46 AM »

That's great.

Now if Keith would just get around to returning my calls/letters/faxes in regard to my security deposit....

boneill · « **Reply #136 on:** March 28, 2008, 01:17:53 AM »

Thanks for the info, I hadn't seen that article nice work KJP. With all that is going on I couldn't be happier that we chose to buy in this neighborhood

KJP · « **Reply #137 on:** March 28, 2008, 04:17:25 AM »

Thanks! Enjoy the neighborhood.

Found the following rendering on PURE's website; it looks like new residential development is starting to make into South Tremont. There isn't much info on the site, so I'm not sure if this development is any more extensive than these four townhomes. I don't know really know this area, but it seems good to see something happening south of 490.

Nothing special in the rendering though...
