A thing I appreciate about Cleveland after visiting recently Detroit is that we didn’t destroy a bunch of our business districts to widen our main arteries like Detroit did with Michigan, Gratiot, etc. You don’t really see any intimate commercial districts like this in Detroit.

Toledo’s Amtrak station is pretty unique. It opened in 1950, making it one of the last major rail stations to be built in the US, so its Modernist style is one that you typically don’t see with train stations.
