I love when cities preserve old buildings instead of just ripping them down to build newer ones. Preserving the past. This city looks like it has a lot of preserved places.
I was just thinking that the other day how they can quickly tear down an old building with the most beautiful facade, and then they go and put up something Bland, plain and ugly. Maybe there's nobody out there anymore that can build ones like the past.
So many. We married In the justice center courthouse and that building is magnificent inside. The judge said go ahead take photos it was beautiful. And the area by playhouse square where the plays are is special. Bob hope got his start in Cleveland.
Next time you visit Cleveland, you need to visit Lakeview Cemetery. Lots of famous people are buried there including Eliot Ness, John D Rockefeller, President Garfield, Alan Freed (who coined the term Rock n Roll) and many more.
YES! The best place in Cleveland -The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! So glad you got to go see it. You can literally spend hours all day there. Thanks for bringing us along. They have changed the outside of it since I was there almost twenty years ago. Always remember the giant guitar outside.
Thank you Adam for this very interesting video, I have learned a lot of things I didn t know about Cleveland. In my country it is not a town well known even if it is a very interesting and beautiful city with its old building, the architecture is stunning...A big hello from France !
I loved this vlog. These guys did a great job of show casing Cleveland. The city look beautiful, when the sky clears up the sunshine and blue skies, fabulous. Thank you for the flattering and informative narrative from a Clevelander born and bred!!
I live the suburbs of Cleveland and have lived here my whole life. I learned more about Downtown Cleveland just in your videos. Love all your videos, my hubby and I been watching you for years..Thank you !!
Great job showing off Cleveland’s architecture and history. It doubles for NYC in a lot of movies. We have great bridges also. No longer anything like a mistake on the lake. Thanks Adam safe travels.
Thanks for showing Cleveland off so nicely. Being from the area I know it’s not a great city like Orlando for families or NYC or Chicago for tourist. But we’re the second largest theater district outside of broadway. Also, those annoying bugs- we refer to them as Canadian soldiers and they are harmless, they’re a sign of a healthy lake. And for weather, we get blizzards and ice storms, sometimes tornadoes (not as often as southern Ohio) and flooding from rain, especially if we get the bands from hurricanes if they hit the east coast. But I mean snow sucks but I know my house mostly isn’t going to be gone in 10seconds from a tornando or blown away or floated away in a hurricane.
Loving these Cleveland vids Adam and always enjoy the Splorin Ryan colab! Sorry about the Rays very exciting wildcard game nonetheless! R&Roll Hall of Fame simply Awesome!
Hello Adam. Another great video from Cleveland. It was nice to see so many places that perhaps I walked around and saw as a child. In the Erie St cemetery some very interesting people are buried there. Lorenzo Carter, a distant relative, so I'm told is buried there. He was one of the first settlers; along with Chief Joc-O-Sot, from the Mesquakie Indian tribe. Story has it that he fought in the Black Hawk War. And 98 veterans from the Civil War I think are there too. That property was in a good location. Imagine what a dollar was worth in 1826! Thank you for the memories and sharing your experience while visiting Cleveland. Totally enjoy watching as you travel to places. Have a wonderful, magical, and blessed day! Dave and Jeanne Rose from Wickenburg Arizona ❤️
That thing scared the heck out of me once. Was driving down back roads in medina (a lot of trees) came to a stop sign (and a clearing from all the trees) and there that sucker was - so close if i had a weak squirt gun i wouldn't have missed!!! After i caught my breath i carried on
I was at the RRHOF twice this summer. First time visitor. It was extremely crowded on my first visit so it was hard to see all the exhibits. Planned it better the second time a month later with my son and got there early. Great place. Also went to the Christmas Story house. Saw how much it cost to stay overnight (at least $650) so I don't think I'll ever be doing that.
I went to the R&R Hall of Fame years ago. Great experience, as was the Country Music Hall of Fame a couple of years later. Keep on keepin' on and glad you're sharing your travels with us.
So glad you guys checked out the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, my brother and I saw it some years back along with a Cleveland “Indians” game, and Alice Coppers restaurant 😊
HEY ATW...THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME HAS to be the most awesome thing you have ever documented! I am still re-watching this episode for the 10th time! Thanks for not leaving Cleveland before you went there! Man, I've always wanted to go there and I went TODAY! Thanks so much! I couldn't say which item was the most intense!
Great video. When I visited the Rock and Roll Hall Hall of Fame years ago, they would not allow any cameras. There was somethings I would have loved to have a photo of.
That V shaped Bank of America building is called a Flatiron building. A very unique style of architecture. There are a bunch of buildings like that in NYC.
Looked like a beautiful day ☀️ I really liked the variety of sites in this vlog. I always get a craving for whatever you’re eating in your videos - and that potato salad looked especially good 😋
The first street you were on was used a lot in the first avengers movie. The bank that is now a grocery store was used for a few exterior parts also and they had a huge fake recreation of the top corner lying in the ground for filming. It was really cool
That ship you showed is the Steamship William G. Mather! My sister worked for a couple years as a tour guide on the Mather when she was in grad school.
I live in New Zealand. And I love music. Thank you for posting this ripper video of the Cleveland Rock and Roll hall of fame. Great exhibits, and housed in that neat pyramid building. I liked Elvis's suit. So cool. From Carl.
Love the Sepultura reference! Saw them open for Ministry in '93, and their intro was (in a very thick Brazilian accent) ' We are Seputura, Brazilian Rock band, let's Rock!!' then heavy guitars....loved it!
The Green Day relics!!!! 😫 I remember watching the Woodstock 94 footage on mtv with my aunt (who doubled as my babysitter and introduced me too the best music). I wanted to be there so bad! But alas, I was only 4 years old 😔 it was one of my earliest memories
I went to Woodstock 99, it was an absolute nightmare, in every way imaginable from constant fights, sexual assaults, overflowing porta potties and all the fires, it was terrible. Woodstock 94 looks like it had great music and people seemed to act in the spirit of Woodstock. Woodstock 99 was hell on earth, I was so disappointed.
@@Sparty-pi3jq Omg! I saw both documentaries on Woodstock 99 and it looked horrendous! I don’t know if most of the concertgoers were even able to enjoy themselves!!!! It was INSANE. It looked like a dystopian society. I’m not exaggerating when I say I’m glad you made it out safely and are alive to tell the story because I know that’s not the case for some
The former Ohio Bell Telephone building at 750 Huron Rd. was briefly the tallest building in Cleveland in 1927. The architectural style was known as “Modern American Perpendicular Gothic” by the architects Hubbell and Benes.
I just subscribed to Splorin Ryan's channel because he has the voice of a classic rock radio DJ. This is the greatest compliment I can give another human being btw.
Watching you and Ryan go to the Cleveland to watch the Rays play the Guardians reminded me of a time waaay back when they were still called the 'Indians.' As a teenager I went to Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio. There, they had a boat ride much like the Jungle Cruise where you were driven along in a boat by your 'tour guide.' The difference is that the theme was the Western frontier, not the jungles of the world. Anyways... you would come around a bend and there would be rifle toting native Americans pointing their weapons at you and the tour guide would say something like, "Oh no! Look over there! Behind those fiberglass rocks! There are indians shooting at us! But don't worry folks, those are Cleveland Indians! And as we all well know, the Cleveland Indians can't hit a thing!"
I lived literally 15 minutes from the Rock Hall until 10 yrs ago and have never been there... Lol my sister in law owns Nuevo restaurant right behind the hall so I have been there, around the harbor numerous times yet never made it into the rock hall so thanks for sharing !!
Such a cool video I love the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame have not been like let’s say four years hopefully I will go back again one day also love seeing all the tailgating for the Browns game
The Toadies still hold up, and right now they're playing Rubberneck straight thru for the 25th anniversary. One of the best albums of the 90s, throw it in, you won't skip a song.
Adam this was fun. I don’t see alot of Cleveland Ohio walk around the city videos out there on the tubes. You and Splorin work great together. Props you guys. Great job. That was fun. “Nailed it”
Just wanted to iterate that David Bowie's first concert in America was at Cleveland Music Hall in 1972; had been getting more than average radio airplay here in Cleveland at the time. Music Hall is a nice venue connected to Public Hall that is sadly never used in recent years... saw some memorable shows there including Frank Zappa (88), Neil Young solo (92), Jerry Garcia Band (83)
I'm telling ya Woo, getting a little apartment in the Cleveland area like university hts, Cleveland hts or Lakewood that would probably be the right vibe for you. Get a place for summer.. Baseball trips galore. And you just might want to.stay here eventually.
Lotta WOWs here today. These two could probably pull off being tour guides at Rock n Roll hall of fame and I doubt anyone would question it. I ordered a bottle of this mysterious magical Bertman's mustard online --I couldn't wait for a trip there to try it. Heh 🙃
I used to work in the AT&T building in the 1970s and from the floor I worked on I could see the Newman-Stearns store on Prospect just a few hundred feet from where you were standing. This was a sporting goods store starting by Paul Newman's father and Mr. Stearns. Paul Newman was supposed to have worked there as a young man for a short time.
Looks like Adam has recovered from the baseball playoffs. That last game I just thought the Rays would get a win but, they just could not get a run across. Hall Of Fame was darn cool !!
sorry i have not been here awhile , but had to do a few things ,,,this is like if i got on a plane with millions of dollars backing me up and just go anywhere i want , so i go to america get off the plane and have a look around by car , bus, hitch hike and go and see all these wonderful places , but instead i just get this guy to show me around on youtube ,,,tanks mate ....us tanks can rule the world one day , not that we really would even if we could rule the world.
Wow! What a neat city! I had no idea how many cool things there are to see. To be honest, I'm way more impressed with downtown Cleveland than I am with downtown Orlando.
Did you enjoy your time in Cleveland lots of good stuff to see in Cleveland. You be safe and take care 🙂 hope you have a better flight ✈️ than you did getting here . GOD BLESS
I would just ignore the bugs. Enjoy the experience! Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, Tom Petty, Michael Jackson and Beatles memorabilia would be enough reason to go to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. That small white building does look like the building in Ghost Busters. Cleveland looks like a fun place to be and the fall weather there is perfect in my opinion.
16:50 I was thinking that looks like the Ghostbusters Fire House. The Rock n Roll museum looks great, I would definitely be interested in visiting that. 👍
The Hanna Building was never a department store; it was always an office tower. The Halle’s Building was the department store. That’s how Halle Berry got her name…her mom liked that store. She was born in the Cleveland suburbs.
Hey Adam the midges or mufflehead bugs you showed us in your last video invaded the browns game yesterday. I had never heard of them until you showed us. Thought it was funny they were talking about it watching the game.
