I think a lot of people share that sentiment....and a lot of people frankly are incorrect. There are SO MANY other places in this country that are less interesting than Cleveland, pound for pound.

WRONG !!!!

Cincinnati has seen BILLIONS of dollars worth of investment in it's downtown alone, one being the recently completed Great American Tower, another being 'The Banks riverfront community' and another being the Ohio Riverfront Park, just to name a few.

I can't even go through all the development around UC, the new 'Green/Envirornmentally friendly' Ohio River port, redevelopment of Norwood/Oakley, Rehabilitation of abandonned warehouses in Northside being converted to apartments and hotels, the first phase of the streetcar. The list goes on and on. Don't turn a blind eye to it, Cincy is eye to eye with Cleveland in regards of development

Like I stated in my prior post, all of Ohios 3 largest cities are experiencing varying levels of investment & growth ... tho, Cincinnati is still not at the level where Cleveland is ...

All of that is GREAT !!! but it's the exact same thing happening here, although at a somewhat slower pace than in Cleveland. From the Casino, to brownfield redevelopment, to investments in the universities, the cityscape of Cincy is dramatically changing, despite the loss of population. It's ashame our douchebag governor jacked our money for the first 2 phases of the streetcar project. I'll be looking forward to seeing how Cleveland's progressed when I go there this weekend for a concert.

Please enjoy your visit to Cleveland ... be sure to explore the city centre, midtown and University Circle ...

I believe you'll be pleasantly surprised @ the level of growth and
investment that is occuring throughout the city

Who is paying for all of this?

Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. The UC projects are likely being paid for by UC. The parks and infrastructure projects are likely being paid for primarily by public dollars, and the rehabilitation of buildings for private use is likely being paid for by private dollars.

Cincinnati and Cleveland are definitely great cities to visit, without a doubt.

Columbus is a fun place to be on Saturdays in the fall though when the Buckeyes are playing at home.

So Columbus is only fun when the Buckeyes are playing Saturday home games in the fall?
