We were raised in Cleveland, left in 1979 to work in Greensboro NC, what a culture shock (but that is another story)
Cleveland home of:
The Cleveland Indians baseball team
The reconstituted Cleveland Browns (the original left to go to Baltimore The Ravens)
Lake effect snow storms
Great food
Friends and Family
West Side Market
The market attracts tourists from all parts of the United States, who tour the market and learn about its history. Guided tours are offered. Its national profile has been boosted in recent years by coverage on various programs produced by the Travel Channel and Food Network.
Many stalls have remained under individual family control for much of the life of the Market, in a few cases dating back to its 1912 opening. The market's tenants and sellers reflect the cultural diversity of the surrounding neighborhood and Cleveland as a whole. The current roster of tenants includes those of Irish, German, Slovene,Italian, Greek, Polish, Russian, and Middle Eastern descents, among others.
In the September 2010 issue of Food Network Magazine, the West Side Market was named America's "Best Food Lovers' Market."
We had a great visit, staying with friends / neighbors in University Hts. Parked the rig near Akron at a really nice KOA that only charged us a few dollars a night to store it.
