[@trunks9296]

Wow!!!

[@joeburger5233]

I've lived in downtown Cleveland for over 8 years. You missed alot. I would have included a Lake Erie sunset at Voinovich Park, the sailboats off the breakwater every weekend, 6th street on a Saturday night - girls primped for a night of dancing, lake freighters on the Cuyahoga River, the Warehouse Street Festival on 9th Street, Winterfest, Muni Lot tailgates, Walnut Wednesdays, 4th Street anytime, wedding pictures at Voinovich Park, East Flats makeover, Cleveland Air Show, etc... bottom line, you missed alot. Downtown Cleveland is the place to be. Ask anyone who lives here.

[@boriskarloff3270]

You forgot the senior citizens and assorted bums hanging around the department store casino slots, and the muggers outside waiting for them to hand over what's left of their money. Now that says the place to be.

[@MrJustinUSCM]

WhyWhere he's kinda right *Remember "don't slow down in Cleveland or you'll die"*

come on down to Cleveland town everyone buy a house for the price of vcr

[@shukracharya_]

really?

[@F22donny]

The Man Yes in some parts like Lorain on the far west side they actually will sell you a house for 100$. Dead serious.

[@F22donny]

[@shukracharya_]

@@F22donny interesting what about property tax and income tax

[@fatihazair4823]

No there is but so old you need to fix it!!thanks from Lakewood ohio

[@adriano5044]

Most underrated city in all of America! Say it time and time again... How many cities can you say are right off or by the lake!??? Not many, that's another element of what makes this city so great! Not to mention, The Rock'N' Roll HOF, Great Lakes Science Theater, World Re known Orchestra bands and eclectic style of restaurant and entertainment we have to offer. City is beautiful in so many ways! "The Land" is the place to be! lol

[@evawilson7727]

I miss Cleveland I lived there for 11 years and my mom wanted to move I'm 12 now living in Florida and I still rather live in Cleveland. Cleveland make me feel welcomed and it'll always be my home.

[@chamula1968]

This video actually made me go to Cleveland and checked it out back in 2018 for thanksgivings Then summer 2019 for 2 months. We loved the city . Got a place in flats, moving there summer 2020. Great job guys !

[@DowntownCleveland]

Thanks Jose! Check out our latest video as well to share with your friends!

[@nadavegan]

+Stanley Charles Because it is by Lake Erie?

[@evacody1249]

+Stanley Charles It's not Detroit is far far far worse. It is the worst city in the whole of the USA. Cleveland has a hell of a lot more going for it.

[@andremoore6928]

Detroit does to im from Detroit and its thriving nope u wrong

[@masonkiefer1222]

Andre Moore Over 70,000 buildings in that shithole you call Detroit are abandoned. One of the highest murder rates in the country. 40% of said murders go unsolved. Nearly all industry in the city is gone. Point me to the thriving part because I just see a husk of a once great city.

[@meltedicecreamsandwich]

@@masonkiefer1222 New Center, Downtown, Palmer park, Milwaukee junction, Indian village and Southwest to name a few.

[@eltrapo6488]

At least the people in Cleveland are not negative towards their own city like Toledo. All that people say under a video of Toledo is how much they hate it even though its not as bad as they make it seem.

[@ericgregorious7047]

Looks nice will try to visit next yr on my us trip

[@magicman2723]

Love Cleveland . Good job guys !! Love performing up in Cleveland.

[@edgilchar]

Beautiful! Great song, too!

Great vid thanks for sharing I've been all over the world except Cleveland but am going there soon. City looks stunning n the people look so happy the way it should be.

[@grabandgoadvice1694]

Like near the Lake! Cleveland is beautiful!

[@spiritualastronomy]

I'm from Cleveland. And do you know what is missing from this well made video of Cleveland in the summer? Let me give you a hint. Fall...Winter...Spring. Is that enough of a hint? I love cleveland in the summer, even into September and October...beautiful. And then comes November. What happens in November? It turns to crap. December is nice because all the Christmas lights and light snow. January, February, March...HORRIBLE. April is a tease. April is such a tease. May, maybe you are out of the thick of the storm...maybe. Then comes June, July and August. Cleveland goes nuts for three months because the summer is so, oh so good...and party! But the cycle does not stop. By the end of September, everyone is getting ready to hunker in. The sailboats only sail for 6 months out of a year. Cleveland, I love it and hate it. Therefore I moved. Thanks but no thanks...you can have it. I moved to Tampa. But I will miss Cedar Point in the fall when Lake Erie is so beautiful and the roller coasters run fast. Cleveland, it's not a bad town, it's just...well...I think I made my point.

[@paulbednarski3216]

+spiritualastronomy I think you miss two points: 1) This is a tourism video and overwhelmingly, most people/families vacation in the summer months. And 2) I think it would be hard to find a similar chamber of commerce-like sponsored video from ANY four-season city that doesn't center on summer. Ever see a snowy one for Boston or Chicago or Pittsburgh or Philly? Finally, I've been to Tampa in July and remembered thinking, you've really got to hate snow to endure that every summer. No people on the street, shades drawn, it's as crazily hot/humid as Cleveland can be cold. (And unlike Florida, Cleveland storms usually are not accompanied by the adjective "devastating" or come with a natural disaster proclamation.

[@DeeDee-lr2qh]

+Paul Bednarski Exaclty the most populated City is NYC it snows there so im pretty sure people do not care about the weather ... i hate when people talk like cleveland is like Alaska , or Denver type weather ...

[@evacody1249]

+Dee Dee I would go to Cleveland over Detroit and I live in Michigan. There are things to do in Cleveland.

[@LivinBilly]

I moved to Southern California for the nice weather too... then I moved back for all the rest of the Cleveland awesomeness that I was missing out on.

[@emilym7844]

definitely miss ohio! im from Sandusky but i always dreamt of living in Cleveland. Thats my city man.

[@loufrangos9615]

Great video and Great Work DCA- I have been here all my life and it gets more exciting everyday! Congrats!!

[@Minervamuse]

Lovely video although the music is a bit annoying. I moved to Cleveland last year from Portland, OR and am loving it here. One small criticism. Why only young people in these scenes? Where are some old folks like me? I am 69 years of age and I like downtown and lots of these things shown here too. Let's show the world Cleveland is for EVERYONE!

[@يوسفالمطيري-ع6ه]

I'm from Kuwait I visited Cleveland two years ago and had my stay for three months, it is a beautiful city and its inhabitants are very friendly

[@boriskarloff3270]

Minervamuse Because showing old people is the kiss of death for any chamber of commerce and business group promotional videos. Especially for a fraud organization like the Downtown Cleveland Alliance that's in bed with the local politicians and a sleazy out-of-state billionaire.

[@Ptpop]

I am 51 and from a marketing perspective they are targeting the "young people" with this advert to attract a new generation, new money etc. The music is "young" the editing is modern etc. Us old farts to don't attack "new blood" to the city. But then again they have been trying to revamp Cleveland's image for at least the last 35 years and so far not too many are buying into it.

[@paulmason7002]

That's just not true. There has been an explosion of Millenials moving downtown . The city can not build apartments fast enough to accommodate the demand. Just go downtown and will see the tremendous growth and development.

[@masonkiefer1222]

Minervamuse Are you accusing the video of being ageist? Really we’ve dropped that low that by not showing old ass people in tourism videos you think we’re saying old ass people can’t go there? I mean just use some common sense for Christ sake and try not to be the victim all the damn time.

[@tpajay]

One of many great videos done on Cleveland. We live 3 hours away by car & make monthly weekend trips to this great city & try to do something different here each time. Been in all 50 states & Cleveland really is one of our favorite places to visit in the USA.

[@CeciliaSherrard]

Born and raised. Love this town! Great video.

[@ehbostic]

Maybe a few too many "ohoh-ohoh's", but it was really nice. I could feel the good energy and optimism rolling off of that video. Now, about the crime; teddy bears and candle-light vigils won't cut it. I recently visited Cleveland to try to decide whether I wanted to move there, and I'd never seen so much blight bumping up against so much beauty. I left with a good feeling, but I was left feeling unsettled, as well. There were so many beautiful homes and streets where I might want to live smashed right against barred doors and decay. I believe whole-heartedly in integration, but something has gone wrong, hasn't it? Who is letting young kids shoot even younger kids? Who is hiding and accepting and sticking up for those who are violent and without direction? What are their excuses? I think I've heard them all, and I'm tired of them. I've seen pastors and family stick up for violent offenders just because they were once cuddly toddlers. Madness. Cleveland, quit giving the perpetrators attention (including spreading their faces all over the news) and let your light shine.

[@UltimateAirShuttle]

Great video! We are huge fans of Cleveland!

[@markwilliamdarus5592]

I lived in Cleveland for over 53 years. Not far from downtown on the West side. First off let me say this video was done exceptionally well with talented videographers and editors. The supporting music is incredible! Sadly, I caught brief glimpses of this while living near the Tremont area where carjackings/vehicle thefts, rampant shootings/drive-by's sent bolts into the night and drugs and hooker activity held sway over all. Granted, while living there my house was only broken into one while my heighbors (who did not have dogs,) were broken into so many times they had issues finding Insurance. In closing: I Believe this to be the BEST Pro-Cleveland videos I have ever seen. To you and yours, Fantastic work! If you are not an Advertisement company you should consider this. Love, -Mark

[@deonfenbauercomments3990]

Lebrons town , respect, beautiful video!

[@thecleseries901]

Awesome video, for an awesome city!

[@sp44113]

Moved back to CLE in 2014 - Missed it every day when we were gone for two years. Living now in Ohio City where we lived before and there are still times I get misty-eyed for being back in the city I love, the neighborhood I love - and seeing the development and progress all around. That said, I do wish the definition of "affordable housing" so far as apartments meant that a one bedroom could be had for around $475 in a place like Ohio City, Detroit Shoreway or Downtown/Midtown. The company I work for is relocating to E. 9th in 2016, and I'd love to be able to live downtown and take the trolley/walk/bike to work and not even worry that I don't have a car.... but "affordable" at $800 a month or much more? Not for me.

[@sp44113]

I'm sure many people sound ridiculous for many reasons to many other people. It would be a boring world if we were all the same. I never said I didn't understand the *reason* for the cost - and my saying $800, that was a minimal guesstimate. I know there are downtown apartments in Cleveland going for well over $1,000 and much of it is due to the RNC coming to town, so yes, I get it. That doesn't mean I have to like it. I'm sure there are things you understand and don't like, right? No need to get so defensive and condescending.

I haven't been to this city to see my cousins since I was 4 years old in summer of 2003. Where finally going by this summer to stop by before we go to back visiting New York City along the way in early June

[@thejoeyd9207]

These changes are great but unfortunately they're not the result of a bustling economy. A lot of this I publicly financed which doesn't bring wealth. We gotta remove all the red tape and let businesses have the freedom to operate. Then money will come back to the city and bigger projects can take place that will be the result of actual wealth, not fake public financing creating an illusion of improvement. The art museums, playhouse square, the clinic and the orchestra were the results of a real bustling economy. Let the invisible hand work Cleveland!

[@boriskarloff3270]

BINGO! And no more tax abatements and tax credits for the businesses, either. But don't say that out loud, the Downtown Cleveland Alliance will have their goons try to pull a stunt similar to when they stole all of Scene's newspaper boxes to silence opposition to hundreds of millions public $$$$$$$ more in arena financing.

[@Brandmuscle]

So cool! We recognize a couple of Brandmusclers in there. Great work with the video, DCA.

[@littlevlogger1014]

I live in Cleveland

[@larryhammonds7865]

There are good reasons the Cleveland area is known as "The best location in the nation," the best being that it is in a location of "balance." That is it is well located with little climate extremes with four seasons, it is centrally located, the cost of living and property values are outstanding compared to other localities, with proper education there are career opportunities and the highway systems in and out are outstanding. That's my opinion and "I am sticking to it." (Of course I have lived in the Cleveland area most of my life.) : )

[@evacody1249]

+Larry Hammonds It was easy to drive in Cleveland and from the little I saw was very nice. I would go back in a heart beat.
