If you're looking for an explanation, this explanation seems to be pretty thoroughly sourced.
I live in Cleveland Oh, and I can't still believe that they wasted 200 million dollars on a bus line. Like the articule said, it runs through a broken down gheto!!!!!!
They should've used that money for JOBS. I'm 25 and i've been unemployed for 3 years. I've applied everywhere, Progressive Field, Live Nation, The Marriot, at Hopkins INternational Airport. I got an email from on of the hotels here downtown saying that I DIDN'T QUALIFY FOR THE POSITION OF DISH WASHER. I mean, really? i didn't know I needed a phd for that.
They could've used that money in a better way. That's why Cleveland is going to hell in a handbasket.
Don't worry, none of us here in the north would want to live in your redneck, hilljack sprawled out podunk excuse for a city.
The Euclid Corridor project was built to connect Cleveland's two largest job and cultural centers, and spur growth in the area between. Development between the two nodes has already begun in earnest. It obviously doesn't spring up over night.
For you Tenesee rejects who don't know what constitutes culture, here in Cleveland it includes the finest orchestra in the western hemisphere, one of the top five art museuems, hospitals, natural history museums, multiple universities, and the 2nd (behind only NYC) largest performing arts cluster in the US, and honestly too many other things to even name. Memphis, I mean Nashville (really, who even knows the difference), you have what, a hick singing venue that anyone with an IQ over 50 would hardly consider attending?
And the former Clevelanders that now live in your lame town can probably only take it because they had suburban sprawl training in Solon, Mentor, or Brunswick without ever trying to figure out what their former city had to offer. Thanks for taking our most ignorant.
Later hillbillies.
Also, it's hard to take this article seriously, considering its author is the former editor of the Cleveland Scene. I'd be pissed off too if I had to be shipped off to a hell hole like Nashville.
Funny you write that ill-informed piece, because my experience with those guests to Cleveland was different. When riding the HealthLine with them, they chose to rave about our transit system that they considered to be the model for mid-sized cities and how great of a system it was for the price that we paid.
In addition they further chose to explicate about their stay in Cleveland going on & on about our historic charm, great cultural institutions, entertainment & residential Downtown, and more.
Why aren't there any quotes from the participants?
