This is right at the section of downtown Cleveland where Euclid Ave. meets Public Square. As noted in the description, the reason it doesn't look recognizable is because the Williamson Building is still there, as is the Chamber of Commerce Building. The Williamson was demolished in 1982 to make way for the construction of the 200 Public Square skyscraper (later known as the Sohio or BP Building). The Chamber of Commerce Building was demolished in 1955. The site served as a parking lot for several decades until that was demolished to make way for the construction of Key Tower, which now occupies that space. For awhile, the Chamber of Commerce Building was home to the short-lived "Cleveland College" hosted jointly by Case and Western Reserve before they merged to become CWRU. For more on that, see case.edu/its/archives/downtown/clevelandcollege.htm

In 1929 my mother would have been 7 years old, living with her sister above her father's delicatessen in a Jewish neighborhood, near the downtown and Lake Erie. 20 years later she would meet my Dad, whose family lived nearby, but the two didn't know each other. By 1929, my Dad had just begun attending Ohio State University, located in Columbus, Ohio. He traveled there by train. He was 10 years older than my mother. My mother talked about how there were still ice men, when she was young, who delivered blocks of ice to people's homes, and businesses. Everyone knew the names of the ice men, and postmen, and all the shopkeepers. Horse drawn wagons for delivering the ice, were still in use in the 1920s.

Chaplinfilms uit de tijd…onzin vind ik. Niet alleen kan men door de afbeeldingen meedenken, ook spreekt het mij aan dat Charlie-een tenger persoon-het op een slimme manier van stoer uitziende personen bij een vechtpartij weet te winnen. Ik hoop dat zijn films een come back maken.

That's pretty much the way Euclid Avenue looked when I was growing up in Cleveland during the 1950s. Cleveland was a major U.S. city then with a population of almost a million, and downtown was still a bustling commercial center with big department stores - May Company, Higbee's, Bailey's, Halle's, and Sterling Lindners. And the grand old theaters were still open: Allen, State and Palace. And then there was the Roxy Burlesque Theater on Ninth Street and Short Vincent with its bars and dubious reputation.

@@glam2gobeauty811 It's still there. It connects East Sixth and East Ninth Streets, between Euclid and Superior Avenues in downtown Cleveland. Today it's all parking garages. Back then (1930s to 1960s) it was a center of nightlife, legitimate and otherwise. Take a look at the short video that follows.

A big thank you for presenting what was, apparently, a Fox Newsreel film of Cleveland in the late summer of 1929 prior to the Wall Street Crash. It's nice to see a parade honoring the first National Air Races at Hopkins Airport back then. With a very large crowd lining Euclid Avenue and Public Square. The names of Davis, as in Sterling, Lindner-Davis department store, Mills Restaurant, and Cleveland College might bring back memories to some old enough to remember. However, I believe that Sterling, Lindner-Davis was on Euclid Avenue and East 12th Street when I was younger prior to its 1968 closure. Maybe, the Davis sign was referring to Davis Bakery, not sure.

The craftsmanship on those downtown buildings was unbelievable. My grandfather came to Cleveland to do the iron work on the Stadium and the Lorain-Carnegie bridge in the 30’s. It amazes me that all of that work was done back then without power tools or computers. Those workers were true craftsmen. I wonder if those workers had any idea those bridges and buildings would still be standing almost a hundred years later.
