ZachTheZip Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 http://www.ohio.com/news/top_stories/15430421.htmlSettled out of court for $443,460. The building they're moving into cost $400,000. He made a $43,460 profit. Absolutely nobody should feel sorry for this guy. Funnny thing is, he got the same amount that was offered months ago, but he just dragged it out too long in hopes of more money, and will now likely have legal fees to pay for because of his greed.

You somehow KNOW that the guy didn't care about staying, he was just being greedy.I mean, he's been there for decades, but he really wanted to move, but didn't move because he knew they wanted to build a stadium there so he held out.He had that "Moving across the street" sign up for a month now, and just recently settled. If he was already moving why would he hold out for a month longer, accumulating legal fees the whole time, if he was just going to accept the offer that was already on the table?

zen Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I really didn't feel like playing the argumentative jerky again, lol, but I just feel like people who are forced to pick up and move are not the bad-guys just because they didn't want to be forced to pick up and move.

g-mann17 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 ...Why do some people have to vilify everyone that they don't agree with?...Exactly, I was discussing things with someone on here, and wondered the same thing the entire time...

flipthezip Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 You're right. They shouldn't be considered the bad guy. But, I think we have let these businesses slide on their responsibilty to the neighborhoods and markets they serve. Clearly the University and community need this new stadium for continued growth and overall pride. These businesses have been offered fair value for their properties as well as ample time to secure alternate locations. While I'm sure the city and University were not the most helpful in finding relocation spots for bars, tatoo parlors, and a head shop, they have been very upfront and straight forward about the stadium plans.What I would hope the city would do is declare the plasma center a neighborhood nusiance and move them out allowing Manny and The Sun to move their places and construct a new multi-use complex there. Both bars, the coffee shop, a restuarant or 2, maybe some shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleacher Bum Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I really don't care where the Odd Corner moves. As long as I can still by a bong and some nudie magazines at the same store, I'll be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziptrumpet87 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Here's a long read about what UA, Summa, and the city may have in mind for the area. I don't know how old the document is (2-3 yrs?), but it's got some interesting things in it.UPA Design Charrette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how old the document is (2-3 yrs?), but it's got some interesting things in it.UPA Design CharretteIt's interesting, but sometimes I get the idea that the people who plan 'revitalization' stuff only want to include themselves, their associates, and those who want to buy their way in as insiders.In other words, existing business owners should get pushed out, despite their years of serving the market, even if they would be willing to cooperate with planning of how things should be shaped and developed, and current residents are just obstructions despite their years of paying taxes and living where others might not choose to.

MDZip Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Don't worry I found his "u". Evidently the Leakin' Urinal is using it. Here is an excerpt from today on a story on the Browns titled "Cleveland Browns: Success Breeds Greed??"Hold on there, big guy. I don't think so. One decent season, does not a five-year contract make. Not buy a long shot. Mind you, after the Browns dispensed with Charlie Frye after the home opener debacle against the Steelers way back in September, Anderson showed that he had some skills at the QB position.
