Galleria at Erieview — Local services in Cleveland

It is not what it originally was ment to be. A mall for the downtown business crowd. The building is as pretty as ever but most of the stores have left. There are some boutique shops, a small Hungarian museum and a food court. There is a nice restaurant with a outdoor patio. The YMCA has a gym there. Most of the clientele is from the office buildings around the indoor mall. Such a large beautiful structure that is circular roof glass inclosed but with so few people even though it is in the middle of everything. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is 2-3 blocks down the street as is the Great Lakes Science Center, the football stadium, Lake Erie and the USS COD (a WWII sub/museum). I enjoy the architecture but so little shopping. Like a beautiful train station with few trains or an old Gothic bank with high ceilings, polished brass railing and marble floors and columns but only ATM's and only a few tellers. Worth a look if you enjoy modern architecture and a stroll by the high office and...

I feel bad about how downtown CLE, in general, has become a "Ghost Town." Tower City, Westside Market, The Flats are Dead. I'm embarrassed when I see tourists walk a few blocks, and I hear them say things like, "it doesn't look like there's anything this way, let's go back." Oh! I almost forgot the Old Arcade, Nautical Queen, and Goodtime ]]] are out to pasture. I never see promotions for the Observation level of the Terminal Tower (is that even open anymore) What about the tours of the old Subway Tunnel under the river? I could go on, but I'm starting to get 😩 nauseous. The Cleveland Chamber of Commerce alongside 40yrs of Horrific Mayor's are at fault for keeping Cleveland what it is, just another run-down "Rust Belt City." Are there ever any conventions at the new convention center? It's empty every time I walk by. Who knows, maybe it's not promoted either 🤔 🤷 😕 Sincerely, ...

This is no longer a shopping destination. Other than the YMCA which is fabulous it is an empty mall with no stores and a skylight. It is so totally depressing reduced to a second floor “walking track” for city employees who have been moved to acres of empty office space because of the scamdemic. Cleveland was just rated the most dangerous unlivable city in the country topping that list for 10 years in a row. Cleveland the wealthiest city in America until 1932 is a pathetic welfare state now waiting for handouts from Joebama. The galleria is a PERFECT representation of how far...
