$29M Hamilton redevelopment could get started this fall; some funding still needed
Jul. 7—The former Schuler & Benninghofen Woolen Mill developer now just needs to complete its capital stack to start the $29 million project. Last month, Hamilton City Council approved the plan for a project that has been said would be transformational for the city's Lindenwald neighborhood. Bloomfield/Schon is proposing a $29 million project to build 125 apartments and provide commercial and recreational spaces, as well as additional parking for the neighborhood. Commonly known as the Shuler-Benninghofen project, the plans call for 91 one-bedroom apartments, with the remainder being two-bedroom, three-bedroom, or studio units. Ahead of last month's unanimous City Council approval of the plans, Mayor Pat Moeller said the city's citizens are anticipating this project, and many in the administration have called it "transformational." "The people we've talked to on the Planning Commission, at cookouts, everybody's really excited about this," he said. "We'll need to finish connecting the dots, but when that gets done, it'll be a great, great project." Some of those dots relate to the developer's financing, which Bloomfield/Schon officials said is needed to finalize before the project begins. Part of the financing does include $3.5 million in Ohio historic tax credits announced in December. Ken Schon, partner at Bloomfield/Schon, told city leaders last month they are speaking with "three or four lenders" and are working with tax credit investors. The goal, Schon said, is to begin construction this fall. "It's been a long haul, but it's going to be great for Lindenwald," said City Council member Michael Ryan. "It's going to be a fresh start for the neighborhood, and I look forward to watching this get redeveloped and am really excited for our Lindenwald neighborhood. This is going to be great. We've got a couple more steps we've got to get through, but I appreciate Lindenwald's patience and belief and trust." This project is far from Bloomfield/Schon's first as the company has a growing portfolio of projects, including its first, the former American Can Factory in Cincinnati's Northside neighborhood now known as the American Can Lofts. They also redeveloped the former Peters Cartridge Factory in Warren County, now a facility with more than 130 apartments in Maineville. ------ MORE ONLINE Follow the steps of this project in previous Journal-News articles.

Lavrov speaks to media at BRICS summit: Live Updates
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is holding a press conference at the 17th annual BRICS summit. The two-day event kicked off on Sunday in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which currently holds the group's rotating presidency. This year, the summit focuses on multilateral cooperation, as well as global development and governance issues. Speaking during the second session of the summit earlier on Monday, Lavrov said the group has been striving for 'a more stable global economic architecture that is built on the principles of universality, transparency, and non-discrimination.' The top Russian diplomat also called for a fundamental reform of international institutions, arguing that many have long since degraded into neo-colonial tools of control. The emerging multipolar world is 'not a choice but rather an objective reality,' he stated, adding that the new model is set to succeed 'the outdated neo-liberal model that actually builds on neo-colonial practices' dominated by 'the so-called developed states of the West.' BRICS was founded primarily as a trade and development group in 2006 by Brazil, Russia, India, and China, with South Africa joining in 2010. Over the past year, the group has extended full membership to Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, the United Arab Emirates, and Indonesia, as well as welcoming ten partner states. This year's summit brings together around 4,000 participants from 37 nations, including senior dignitaries from member states, partner countries, and international institutions.

Klay Thompson spotted training with Dallas Mavericks new addition
In light of Kyrie Irving's ACL injury, the Dallas Mavericks found themselves in need of point guard depth this offseason. After rectifying this issue in free agency, the roster's latest addition is already hard at work with one of his new teammates. Following his second stint with the Brooklyn Nets in the latter half of last season, D'Angelo Russell found himself on the free-agent market. The former All-Star ended up signing with the Mavericks on a two-year deal worth $11.6 million. Russell now finds himself back on a Western Conference team with championship aspirations. He'll begin next season as the Mavs' starting point guard and then shift to a sixth man role whenever Irving makes his return to action. Advertisement Earlier this week, footage surfaced online of Russell getting work in with Klay Thompson on the University of Miami's campus. The two appear to be attempting to rekindle their chemistry as they gear up for their second run as teammates. Russell and Thompson briefly shared the floor together six years ago on the Golden State Warriors. The former No. 2 pick found himself in the bay in the sign-and-trade that sent Kevin Durant to the Nets. Russell only played in 33 games for the Warriors though, as he dealt again a few months later. This time to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for Andrew Wiggins. Though Russell isn't the caliber of guard Irving is, he should be a viable short-term option for Dallas as they await his return. He can create offense for himself and others and is capable of being an effective floor-spacer. Also, Russell already has chemistry with Thompson and Anthony Davis from his previous stops in the league. This should aid him as he prepares for this new chapter of his NBA career. Advertisement Following their blockbuster trade last season, the Mavericks will be looking to be a highly competitive team in the Western Conference to silence their critics. Russell will attempt to help them do so by filling the void left by Irving.
