When will the renovations/scaffolding be finished and removed from the Terminal Tower?

MayDay · #**245** Posted **Oct 3, 2007, 6:49 PM**

Not for another couple of years - it's a long slooooow process - there's a lot of rebuilding and repairing going on up there. The metal cupola at the very top was completely reconstructed; the decorative elements are being removed and re-cast, replaced with a resin-based microcotta which is much more durable than the existing material; and all brick/mortar is being tuck pointed, etc. (Images from Coon Restoration):

Also, the base of the tower is much larger than what you see from a distance in the skyline, and the entire cornice is being replaced/recast:

That's why in almost two years, it's only gone from this:

To this:

It's taking a long time but from what's visible, they're doing an amazing job.

The Terminal Tower looks great from the previous photo a couple of years ago I take when it was taken.

Austinlee · #**247** Posted **Oct 7, 2007, 1:15 AM**

Ok; Thanks for the explanation Mayday. That looks like a huuge job... I'm sure that I am only one of many people who eagerly await the finished product!

I heard that there are some proposals for some new highrises on Public Square. Do you happen to have any articles about this?

Not in the city proper, but a cool project in one of my favorite inner-ring 'burbs:

Lakewood riverfront project allowed to proceed

Tuesday, October 16, 2007
Molly Kavanaugh
Plain Dealer Reporter
Lakewood- An upscale riverfront development announced more than a year ago has the green light to proceed.

The Cliffs on Rocky River needed land and money for an access road, and both issues have now been resolved. The city will provide $250,000, the county is donating 0.4 of an acre and Cleveland Metroparks signed a memo of understanding agreeing to grant an easement.

"I can't say enough about the city and county. They have been very solidly in support of the project," said Rick Foran with Foran Montlack Development LLC.

The buying public has been supportive, too, he said. Originally, Foran was going to build 46 condominiums on the bedrock rising from the former Krumreig Marina, but now he may construct as many as 60 units. Six people have already put deposits down and another four dozen are interested in reserving a condominium, he said.

"This is such a unique location, we have found that people are interested," he said.

Great news!

Atlantan · #**252** Posted **Nov 3, 2007, 11:23 PM**

The Avenue District is coming along nicely. Up to 5 stories now.

Austinlee · #**253** Posted **Nov 3, 2007, 11:48 PM**

The Cliffs is an awesome project. I am jealous.

MayDay · #**254** Posted **Nov 7, 2007, 1:27 AM**

It reminded me of this building in Pittsburgh, but built down at the river's edge:

Floods7 · #**255** Posted **Dec 2, 2007, 4:59 PM**

It seems no one has any updates on Cleveland or anything happening around there. I am down there everyday, and I see alot of progress. I have a question though on the Euclid corrdor project. The busses began to run late last week. I thought that the busses they would be using were long monarail style busses. Instead its just regualr busses. Is this just because there just testing it out, or are they not going to have those 2 car style busses?

MayDay · #**256** Posted **Dec 6, 2007, 8:19 PM**

Sorry - I've been too busy lately but I added some quick updates: Avenue District, Terminal Tower restoration, Tremont Pointe (Valleyview), and Gospel Press building.

The regular busses are being used for the Euclid Corridor project to get drivers (bus AND car) used to the new traffic patterns. They'll eventually have the sleeker articulated buses when it's fully operational.

Holy crap! That "after" photo of T.Tower looks amazing! I can't wait to see what the finished work will reveal.

SJPhillyBoy · #**258** Posted **Dec 7, 2007, 1:13 AM**

Wow. Twerminal Tower is looking fantastic in the post-renovation pics. Nice that it is being re-done.
Even without the renovation, it is a beautiful building.

MayDay · #**259** Posted **Jan 4, 2008, 3:22 AM**

Just a quick update with new pics for the Avenue District and Terminal Tower restoration.
