The County commissioners just voted 2-1 to tear down the old Ameritrust Tower and replace it with a building characterized by Plain Dealer architecture critic Stephen Litt as “uninspiring”.

The deal still must be approved by the City od Cleveland Planning Commission. Tuesday, we’ll be joined by Litt and the incoming director of Kent State University’s Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative Christopher Diehl to critique the commissioners' decision. And, with new projects under way from the Euclid Corridor to the Flats, we’ll talk more generally about architecture and space our urban core.
