Comments on: What Las Vegas Can Learn From the Rust Belt http://rustwire.com/2009/10/13/what-las-vegas-can-learn-from-the-rust-belt/ News from the Rustbelt Sun, 06 May 2012 17:20:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: schmange http://rustwire.com/2009/10/13/what-las-vegas-can-learn-from-the-rust-belt/comment-page-1/#comment-813 schmange Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:30:39 +0000 http://rustwire.com/?p=2462#comment-813 I thought it was pretty good too. I was also surprised by the choice of Boston. Even Chicago or Baltimore would be better. He was awfully negative about Cleveland and awfully positive about Pittsburgh. It's kind of funny because that conservative editorial did we wrote about a while ago did the opposite thing, they were positive about Cleveland and negative about Detroit. I guess it's all a matter of perspective. But this is a big issue to take on in one article. Cities are extremely multi-faceted and their problems are complex. I don't know if anyone really knows why Pittsburgh is suddenly rebounding and I don't know if it's any one thing, but I'm sure there will be a lot more theories about it as time goes on. One little complaint: how come when Cleveland cleans its river it's not good enough but when Pittsburgh cleans its river it is? I thought it was pretty good too. I was also surprised by the choice of Boston. Even Chicago or Baltimore would be better.
