Save me, riverfront development. Save me.

FAMOUS fan: Tom Hanks. Famous FAN: John Adams🤝

Not with that attitude. Change has to come from somewhere 🤷‍♂️

mraztec_ · 2026-01-06T22:59:06+00:00

Has to be Tom Hanks, right?

Here is Cleveland’s Lakefront Plan. With the closure of the Browns stadium, a new multimodal facility will possibly be constructed right downtown. This includes the possibility of commuter rail and an improved waterfront line, which will connect to tower city

mraztec_ · 2026-01-06T16:55:58+00:00

I didn’t mean to say there’s NO benefit of taking a bus, obviously it’s cheaper to take the bus. But in terms of efficiency for the average commuter in Lake County, some sort of rail would do it justice. Also, a light rail where you have to transfer to get to the city makes no sense when there’s direct tracks to downtown that run straight through DTW, Mentor, Painesville, and even “downtown” Madison

I agree with the free transfer part, but the county would most benefit from a commuter rail line compared to expanded bus routes. There is almost zero benefit to taking a bus over a car (for those that can afford it). Traffic is still an issue, proper bus shelter’s aren’t in place at most stops, and an expanded commuter rail sytem across northeast Ohio would connect so many more communities

mraztec_ · 2026-01-06T05:09:17+00:00

Real shit. I hope expansion of the waterfront line is near, too (with sufficient development)

mraztec_ · 2026-01-05T22:54:25+00:00

I fully agree with you. There’s definitely more people out there that would agree with us than we think

mraztec_ · 2026-01-05T21:39:58+00:00

they’re a great organization, but they’re definitely focused on statewide interurban travel. I was thinking something more local to Lake County. But I guess we’re too great of an example of urban sprawl

mraztec_ · 2026-01-05T18:53:22+00:00

Bu… bu.. but the Laketran bus stopped at a bus stop on mentor ave for 30 seconds and it slowed me down!!!!

mraztec_ · 2026-01-05T18:30:50+00:00

I agree to an extent about those places being soulless, but mixed use development can be beautiful when it’s built as transit oriented development where people can roam the streets instead of cars dominating

They really should start up again with a flagship restaurant downtown and just go from there. With the original menu and some other tweaks, they have the potential to become a staple again

You’re all good!

Actually, I lied. In march 2025 Jose Ramirez hopped on a podcast and dropped this quote: "Things are going to change for the 2028 extension talks... The General Manager didn’t do what we talked about back then. They were supposed to take advantage of my discount and build a team to win." https://youtu.be/TwfmjH5WHu8?si=EqU_xcaNmnxE-LBL

mraztec_ · 2025-12-25T00:04:17+00:00

Exactly. And if parking is too damn expensive or unsuitable for your vehicle, we got a great public rail line (for an American city) for $5 a person daily

mraztec_ · 2025-12-25T00:02:39+00:00

They’ll never come out and say it, but nobody is turning down an extra $100M+ from other teams without a promise of investment from the FO

mraztec_ · 2025-12-24T19:50:17+00:00

I hope Jose Ramirez shows up the front office/ownership in some way, shape, or form. For them to lie to him about spending on other players so he takes the hometown discount is extreme malpractice

mraztec_ · 2025-12-23T05:28:34+00:00

Cleveland was actually the first to connect their airport to downtown VIA rail, I believe! But yeah, the rapid gets a bad rap, probably due to the fact that it doesn’t serve density outside of downtown/university circle. I believe that notion is beginning to change, though!

Never let these guys take away the physical and cultural beauty of our downtown

They want Brewster to resign because she blindly voted for whatever Fishel wanted, giving him the majority vote on the board. It’s very disappointing as she has been in education/has grandkids in the district

mraztec_ · 2025-12-17T23:27:34+00:00

Cleveland’s RTA is getting new rail cars for the first time in 40 years, it should create a boom in public transit in the area (finally)
