Reflecting on 2017 projections for Cleveland, Wondolowski says, “We’re going to be a little stronger this year than we have been.” He notes that there are nine school projects within Cleveland alone and others in surrounding communities. While there are “plenty of infrastructure projects” under construction, he hopes to see additional work from a $160-million expansion of Quicken Loans Arena as well as from the proposed Nucleus mixed-use development in downtown Cleveland.
