Happy Dog gets a bit bigger; local funny Tweets: Michael K. McIntyre's Tipoff | cleveland.com
It's a sign: The University Circle United Methodist Church isn't delivering its message only from the pulpit these days. A new, state-of-the-art LED sign greets the many motorists who pass by the church daily.
The new sign was nearly two years in the making with various city permits needed for its design and placement.
"It's in such a marvelous location. We have 60,000 people go through there every day," said the pastor, the Rev. Ken Chalker.
It replaces two older-style signs, the kind for which letters were hand-placed to convey messages. Before those signs were removed, they carried this message: "Sign for sale: Inquire within."
No, the church wasn't selling "signs" from heaven. The actual signs are for sale. They're in storage. Asking price: $3,750 for one, $6,995 for both.
Cleveland Ignites Job Growth With Rebuilding Project - NYTimes.com
In effect, the Uptown area will be what amounts to a new downtown for the University Circle neighborhood on the east side of the city. Within the square mile of University Circle, and within easy walking distance of Uptown, are Case Western Reserve, the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Cleveland Institute of Music, University Hospitals, Cleveland Clinic, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Museum of Art and the Museum of Natural History.
Spread across a campuslike expanse of green space, these institutions form a distinct economic microclimate that has fostered the highest growth in job numbers, income and residents in a city that lost 17 percent of its population from 2000 to 2010.
“There are 5,000 more jobs here than in 2005,” said Chris Ronayne, an urban planner who is president of University Circle Inc., a nonprofit community service organization that has helped manage the area’s development. “About 50,000 people work here. The number of residents grew 11 percent since 2000. And there are 10,000 people who live here now.”
