Very nice...I'll snap a pic if noone else does by 4.

Thanks!! I have this thing for cool and quirky signage.

[jjames0408]

I just can't go in...I have a nasty habit of spending too much money in there.

Regarding the Chipotle on Euclid, I just Tweeted at them asking about any plans to put a location in downtown Cleveland and their response was "I don't see any plans in the near future, but things can change!" Take that as what you will

[ClevelandOhio]

^ Thats strange, but maybe they dont want any information leaked over twitter? Who knows

chipotle is moving forward. relax. believe it or not things usually don't get built 1 week after being announced.

I definitely trust you. You've always been right in the past. It will be awesome to finally see that space finally used. Such a cool building.

It does seem strange though that they would publicly say they don't know of any plans yet if it has been announced.

Ehh, not really.  If they are still working through all of the details (MRN, Planning & Landmark Commisions, etc) they may not want to announce it yet.  Each company will have different policies on how the public is informed about such things.  Twitter, while great at interacting, isn't really the place to make a statement like that.  Press releases allow for much more control over what message is being delivered.

First casino visit last night and walked back by Chipotle and J Gumbo's spot - and didn't like the empty storefronts - and this will make a HUGE difference.. Hopefully, a full set of storefronts will help connect all business along there (Pura Vida and the former Cadillac Ranch seem isolated from rest and could use some more customers, too).

Now - and this may be for another thread (Gateway) - but what's going on with same spots on Prospect? Almost totally empty blocks between E 4th and casino...

[mrclifton88]

WELL... its finally here.  What do we think?  I don't know anything about the restaurant but this is in my opinion a huge development for the area...

Was at an event at Uptown this evening and Ari Maron announced this. Said it will be on the front page of the PD tomorrow. Apparently they have a location on Richmond Road and two in Florida.

I've been to the one in Beachwood and it's a great steakhouse!    But I'm more excited about the huge upgrade that the building will receive. Haven't seen any plans yet, but I can't imagine Maron will finish the ground floor without upgrading the entire thing. It will be nice to have those eyesore fences removed.

[ClevelandOhio]

And the facade restored hopefully! Im glad to see this finally happen!

[mrclifton88]

Im most excited about this long-unsightly gap being filled in and now turn my eyes down Prospect towards the Goldfish group of buildings and the May Co....  Between those and the couple surface lots (one can wish) I can't wait to see what happens next now that the momentum is continuing.

If those merchants are looking for a place to move, there's plenty of vacant space inside the Euclid/Colonial Arcades! Sheesh!

[Clevecane]

^ I was just thinking that... or the Galleria? Halle Building?  Anyplace really..

[ClevelandOhio]

I still think the those arcades, especially the Euclid arcade since it is worse off, would be great as a place for small local shops like Room Service and Salty not Sweet, maybe even Yellow Cake. If you put them all in one location, and that specific location, I think it almost becomes somewhat of an attraction, and they benefit off of each other. It would be a great place for locals to try out their business like that. And from there they could always expand into larger spaces along Euclid and Prospect. It brings new local shopping downtown, and could really jumpstart the retail scene downtown in my opinion.

Imagine walking through those arcades and see them full of small little boutique like local businesses. I think it would be successful, and a good direction to go.

We have tower city to house local stores though....

I feel they'd all have to move and open at once to get over that "chicken and egg" scenario.  Something like what Glazen is trying to organize for Waterloo.

I hope someone responsible for leasing in the arcades is pursuing the retailers being displaced by Red.

Trust me, those retailers have been reached out to.  They're not interested in what they consider to be an untested and low-visibility location.  There are also concerns about the size of the spaces.

[KJP]

I walk into the arcades for lunch from Euclid. I rarely walk along Prospect since half the street is taken up by surface lots. Those retailers need to see the pedestrian traffic on Euclid these days. Being in the arcades gives them access to that. What do they get by being on Prospect?

[StrapHanger]

^From the context, I think "those retailers" in Confiteordeo's post refers to Salty Not Sweet, etc., who are located in places like Ohio City.  Seeing that kind of scene in the two smaller arcades would make me really, really happy.  Even without visibility, if they could together build some kind of critical mass, it could be pretty awesome and make a name for itself as a destination.  Would definitely be a challenge to get there though.

[jjames0408]

Well, they would definitely have to allow people in past 7 in order for anything worthwhile to happen.

[Mendo]

The colonial arcade is open to 9pm weekdays for the fitworks gym. Not sure about weekends.

Red is one of the best steakhouses in the country.  I believe it got a 28 Zagat rating.

[ragarcia]

I've been to the one in Miami Beach, indeed, it is a great steakhouse. Probably the best steaks I've ever had.

If it wasn't superb it wouldn't have survived as just one block from it is Prime 112 Steakhouse which is ultra popular with the rich and famous of Miami.

Tremont Taphouse "liked" two new pages on facebook last night:  The Cleveland Brewing Company and Butcher & the Brewer...both with addresses listed on East 4th Street.  Looks like we know what's filling in the gap!  Butcher & the Brewer's page says it's opening Spring 2013.  The Cleveland Brewing Co.'s page seems to have disappeared in the time it took me to write this.

Which is right where Dredger's Union used to be. The Cleveland Brewery has an address for 2043 E 4th Street, so maybe the empty storage space next door?

[StrapHanger]

Wow, interesting stuff.  Can't wait to hear who the folks are behind these ventures.

I've always thought Red has a great steak, but I forgot about Prime 112. Ate there once and it was really good as well.
