Downtown Cleveland Remains a National Leader in Office to Housing Conversions 

  • Two downtown projects received $5.9M in historic tax credit awards from the state 
    • 700 Prospect  
    • 1220m Old River Rd. 
  • DCI continues to advocate for expanding the program as it helps create needed housing, puts vacant buildings back in use, and helps stabilize the real estate market 

Light Up The Lake 4th of July Fireworks This Week! 

  • Come Downtown for the annual fireworks spectacular for all ages 
  • Released over the Port, the fireworks can be seen from Voinovich Park, the Flats (East Bank or West Bank), Whiskey Island or any spot along the shore from Wendy Park to Edgewater Par 
  • Begin approximately 10pm   
  • Thank you to sponsors: presented by Minutemen Family of Companies, with additional support from Circle K, K&D Group, and the City of Cleveland 

Movie Magic in our City Center 

  • Downtown continues to be transformed into a blockbuster movie set 
  • Film productions have the potential to create permanent jobs in the state's film and theater industries.  
  • Movie filming helps to boost the local economy as movie crews book hotels, purchase from local businesses, hire local vendors, and contribute to our region.  
  • Downtown Cleveland serving as the location for multiple blockbusters also has positive long-term impacts such as increased tourism, visibility and recognition. 
  • The Square is closed through Friday to accommodate the movie, this includes REBoL, the Splash Pad, and the Soldiers & Sailors Monument 
  • Public Square will reopen on Saturday, July 6th
