Isn't the plex an indoor facility?

The Plexx is nowhere near downtown. . .it's across the river from IPFW.

For some reason, the article did not show for me. Damn it.

@ Jambrea: VERY good points.

@ Jambrea again: throw me a copy of the article in an email, please

@ Jambrea again: Never trust a bunny.

I think his point was we already have an indoor sports facility.

We already have a McDonalds too. . .that does't mean we can't have one downtown.

Was Diamond Jims indoor? If we had a water park it would have to be indoor. People still swim in the winter!

Yep.

Nope, it doesn't. The big questions are 'do we need it' and 'will it be used'?

anybody notice the gaping hole
where OMNI Source was??

I know it's not exactly downtown,
or what's in the ground (did Omni
contaminate the soil) but it sure
looks like you could fit something
large there.

OmniSource is still there, they've just moved the scrap processing over to the Maumee location.

I know OmniSource is moving offices to the old Waterfield Mortgage place.

WBOB · Post by **WBOB** » Tue Aug 15, 2006 3:25 pm

I think Jambrea is correct.

once they move out of those offices,
you'll have about a roughly
3 square block area left.

Whoah. I guess a lot happens in a year. Surprised I didn't hear any of that from Alex.

I just read it yesterday in the Business Weekly.
