  1. god there's always something unnerving about these massive atrium hotels, you go out your room door, and you have this maybe 10 foot wide walkway then a 150 foot drop to the ground. Never liked them for some reason. stayed in a hotel in columbus ohio which was this vast interior space

  2. it might not be interior urbanism but the new operators of the International Exposition Center in Cleveland Ohio are currently in the process of sub-dividing the massive exposition center into several exposition venues, and commercial business spaces with the ultimate goal to have a use for every space in the vast structure generating revenue with additional follow on plans to build additional structures in the large area currently devoted to parking. All told, they're taking an old aircraft/tank plant and subdividing it into a vast quasi interior urban space because they hope to have dozens of businesses with hundreds of workers under one roof, as well as exposition events going on at the same time. And anyone who's been there kind of knows that while its not far off the beaten track, because of its attached location to the airport, its not got a whole lot of businesses around it, and the airport bought out much of the housing around it for a planned then cancelled expansion project back in the early 00's
