Cleveland Flats
on a misty summer day. Colours are cool. Especially buildings
painted firehouse yellow/gold. It works here wouldn't you say?
Most folks don't realize that the USA has a north coast. Well here
it is, Cleveland's north facing waterfront aimed directly at Canada. Note
the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame as the slanted building as seen above the
sail boat's bow. Old wealth in this town. Once one of America's
greatest cities in size. Coming back now and we are very glad to
be an AZooNY part of it.
A proposed trolley museum on the downtown waterfront rapid transit line
is in the works. Well it works for us. Hope the old time conductor
is included..
Another cool addition for the people of northeast Ohio, is
the new downtown Wendy Park.
On to the Arts...
One of the top FREE art museums in the States, the Cleveland
Museum of Art. Due for a major expansion too, as if it's monsterous
size isn't enough already. Well endowed, lots of art, built to
last..
One of the seven wonders of Cleveland is the now vacant Cleveland Trust
"rotunda" building. Right smack downtown, this could
be a gem of a visual arts museum but it's owned by a very powerful (and
local) developer (Jacobs Group).
Perhaps they will do something noteworthy with it for the good of the
community some day.
