First off did you read the thread on the Detroit forum??? Second you said the area between mack and 6mile on Vandyke like its two or three lights down smh.
I meant to say it as in a very long stretch of vacant area, I believe it's 4 or 5 miles.

smh @ you for lying about your city and bashing Cleveland, when it's obvious you haven't been here much.
It's certainly dead for these 2 cities...Too poor, a bad brand, high taxes...
You obviously have no idea about Cleveland. Maybe you should read this thread a little and get info about Cleveland before posting something that is bull.

If you want to see a good example of a rust-belt revival, look at Pittsburgh. Cleveland is still sorting out its issues compared to Pittsburgh, but it is light years ahead of Detroit.
Detroit is a one-trick pony (Big 3/auto industry) and that pony was already on its last legs before the recession.

But do you know about any of these?: East Banks of the Flats Project, Euclid Corridor Project, Uptown Project, Tyler Village Project, University Hospitals Cancer Center, Little Italy Townhomes Project, Avenue District Project, Gordon Square Battery Park, Medical Mart, Warehouse District renovations to condos, E. 4th, Museum of Art $30 mil expansion, New Aquarium, Chicle Building and Condos, Casino etc
Just because YOU haven't heard anything, doesn't mean stuff isn't going on in Cleveland. There are billions of dollars worth of projects all throughout the city. Outside of Cleveland, no one knows about it because the media loves to bash Cleveland -- when in reality they are just being ignorant.

I visited Cleveland a couple years ago for a wedding. Half of downtown looked like it was under construction. I've been to Cleveland a few times before that. I lived in pittsburgh for a year.
While University Hospital is nice, I still think UPMC is a better developed hospital system.
Not to mention, does cleveland have an article like this from a major newspaper? Is cleveland's unemployment rate and housing market doing as well as pittsburgh's?
Cleveland and Pittsburgh are on the same level right now. If someone tells you different then they are drinking the kool aid big time.
Also, what Detriotlove is failing to see is that the auto industry is still one industry. Regardless of how 'diverse' the jobs that depend on it are, if that industry leaves, so do those jobs.
Cleveland has bio-tech. Pittsburgh has bio med. Akron has polymers. Detriot has.....err, manufacturing.
There's foreclosed homes you can buy in Detroit for less than $75
... Yea
Cleveland is a great, improving, GROWING city.
I'm sorry to rag on Detroit like this, but there's only one way to answer this IMO.
