futuremanParticipantLand exchange will lead up to third phase of Grandview Yard
By ALAN FROMANThisWeek Community News Wednesday June 5, 2013 2:00 PM
Grandview Heights City Council is considering a series of ordinances that would enable Capital Wholesale Drug Co. to remain operating at its current location within the Grandview Yard development and the Yard developer to build a parking lot for Phase 3 construction.
Council’s economic development committee reviewed and discussed the five pieces of legislation Monday night, June 3, prior to the regular council meeting. Council held second readings of the ordinances.
Capital Wholesale and NRI have reached an agreement on a land exchange that would allow the business to remain operating at 873 Williams Ave.

groundrulesParticipantSo awesome that they decided to remodel Grandview to make it look like Easton. I can’t wait until they finally get around to leveling that bank block of Grandview Ave.

I hope you’re being sarcastic about GY looking like Disneyla…..I mean Easton.I agree. I’ve been pretty disappointed with Grandview Yard. NRI really pushed the bar (at the time) with the Arena District.
NRI really didn’t up their game with GY. In fact, I’d say they stepped it down quite a few notches and are in the process of creating a glorified Lennox Shopping Center with some crappily done apartments mixed in.

Now it’s serves only as yet another monument to commerce. If only the purity of artistic expression could have been maintained.
Now, people will sully the area with their presence. Oh, woe.

That being said, I’m not anti-change or anti-development. I never said that something shouldn’t have been done with empty space. However, two things. First, they’re also doing a lot with space that wasn’t empty. Secondly, and more importantly, if you’ve got permission to slash and burn an entire quadrant of a city/neighborhood- start from bare fucking earth- you should be able to come up with something more innovative and creative. You know they could have done better.
