Great app!

This app has been a valuable tool while researching my family history in the Cleveland area from the mid 1850’s. The photographs of buildings demolished long ago help fill out the stories from my parents’ childhood.

Response from developer

We're so glad you've found the app useful for your research!

Great app!

This app is very well put together. There is so much history, and detail about areas, and landmarks all around northeast Ohio. It’s a must for anyone living here or visiting.

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind review!

Great resource for Clevelanders

Whether you want to know about local landmarks near you or follow a suggested tour this is a brilliant guide. It includes maps, photos, landmark descriptions and for some, audio clips of resident interviews. And it's free!

Fantastic

Fascinating and well organized. Every Clevelander should have it!

I use this all the time!

This is absolutely wonderful and I still use this all the time even though I originally downloaded this a while ago. I'm so glad that someone took the time to compile all of this in such an easy to use format!
