Nice Building for Cleveland!

Looks like it will fit in with the surrounding buildings as well.

What do you mean? Is this on hold? Or what was proposed there prior?

^The full-scale plans of relocating the port to either the East 55th area or west of downtown have been tabled. I'm okay with that, at least for the time being - that plan wasn't viable in the least. That said, who knows - now that the Flats East Bank is finally under construction, it could encourage someone to come up with a new relocation plan that's more workable?

^Here's a link to the plans for the waterfront - they're much more do-able than previous versions, which gives me more hope. http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2011...ew_plan_f.html

Getting back on topic, we now have structural steel going up:

I've mostly been following the FEB construction progress from the updates on this website and thru the webcam. But I finally made it down to the site this past weekend, and I took some pics.

I haven't posted here in ages but I had to chime in on this building.

Despite the lack of a skyline changing building I'm thrilled that we have some construction going on in the downtown area. As for the Ernst and Young building I absolutely hate this location for a building of this size. I get a good view of the building going up while riding home on the #55 Clifton bus and I just can't imagine it being pleasant to look out the window and see the Shoreway bridge and the traffic going by being relatively close to the building.

Too bad Stark didn't get any projects going for what has become a mega parking lot between W. 3rd and W. 6th. The Ernst and Young tower would have been a nice filler between Terminal Tower and the Stokes Federal Courthouse Tower.

^ well i agree at this point in time it would be better placed on one of those damn lots, that is water under the bridge. unfortunately, stark did not own any of that property, could never get consensus from those skeezball parking lot owners, and seemingly got no help from the city to build out the warehouse district.

otoh, the wolstein family got plenty of help from the city, owns and controls a lot of the east bank flats and as we see is finally getting it redeveloped, so i say more power to them. don't you agree that if wolstein's team is successful, and they will be, those warehouse district parking lots will go away soon enough? but for now, as someone said above, can't wait to see some glass on this sharp new building!

one more thing that is hard to let go in regard to seeing construction downtown --- mon dieu! what about the convention center redevelopment? relatively speaking, outside of the wtc site that is one of the largest downtown construction projects i have seen. not to mention, keeping the convention center buried underground is quite clever, so bravo cleveland for that!

Here's a FEB webcam update. Not too much noticeable progress since some of the last pics were posted.



http://www.flatseast.com/webcam.htm



It does look like the extra long steel pieces on the left of the webcam pic will be the "cut-out" area of the building. If that's the case then we've got another 5-6 levels for the elevator core for it to be topped out!!! Hard to believe that the steel structure will be double what it is now. Looks like this building will have some decent size to it.

Here's a few pics of the FEB site that I got over the weekend. Think the building is gonna look pretty good as more and more of the windows/facade are installed.

Here's a few pics of the construction from the FEB facebook page. They're a couple of weeks old, but still worth posting.

Phase two!!!

finally phase two has been announced!

Flats East Bank project lines up country-music venue, eateries and looks to $120 million phase 2

Michelle Jarboe McFee, The Plain Dealer 4-13-12

Quote:
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A country-music venue and four restaurants have signed deals at the Flats East Bank, as the developers of the waterfront neighborhood wrap up leasing for the first part of the project and turn their attention to a $120 million second phase.

On West 10th Street, well-known Northeast Ohio restaurateur Ken Stewart has signed a lease to open a steak and seafood restaurant bearing his name. Ken Stewart's will be joined by a Flip Side burger joint, a gourmet taco restaurant called Dos Tequilas and Lago, a popular eatery moving from Tremont to the Flats.

The retail announcements come as construction is well under way on the $275 million first phase of the Flats East Bank, a waterfront neighborhood being developed by the Wolstein Group and Fairmount Properties. An 18-story office building, a 150-room Aloft hotel, a gym and a riverfront boardwalk are slated to open next spring.

And the developers are unveiling their plans for a $120 million second phase, including a 140-unit apartment complex. A rendering of the project shows a building that gently scallops along the riverfront. Phase two also would include restaurants and entertainment, on the ground floor of the apartment building and other areas of the site.

The 23-acre Flats East Bank site has room for hundreds of additional apartments. But the developers, who fought to keep their office-and-hotel plan alive during a brutal recession, are tackling the rest of the project in bite-sized pieces. To make the apartment plan work -- and offer competitive rental rates -- the second phase is sure to involve a combination of public and private financing.
I know the image is quite large, but it really shows great detail (plus Im on an old work computer that isnt cooperating quite well for resizing)
