CLEVELAND Photo Tour (July 2010), Part 3: Murray Hill, Little Italy, Cleveland Clinic, Progressive Field

Here's Part THREE of my Cleveland tour.

If you missed either of the last two parts:

Part 1
Part 2

This part of the tour includes the Murray Hill Neighborhood, Little Italy, Cleveland Clinic, and Progressive Field and game between the Detroit Tigers and the Indians.

Murray Hill, on Cornell Street






Little Italy






La Pizzeria, where I ate, the place just opened not long ago, the pie they have is very fine, like what it should be in Italy.


























Main Business Area of Little Italy, corner of Murray Hill and Mayfield










Holy Rosary Church


Nice Park in Little Italy










These homes with three storeys and an angled roof are typical of what you see in Cleveland.




Back at the Medical Campus of Case Western University




More typical Cleveland homes...




A little Tudor style near the University


Looking west on Euclid, waiting for the Health Line Rapid Bus...


Cleveland Clinic

Sydell and Arnold Miller Family Pavilion Building




Glickman Building and Tower




Lerner Research Institute Building...






Intercontinental Hotel


East Mt. Zion Baptist Church


Cole Eye Institute




Cleveland Clinic Alumni House


I believe this is the main and original Cleveland Clinic Hospital Facility


Stanley Shalom Zielony Plaza


Taussig Cancer Center




Original Cleveland Clinic Building






Made it back in time for the main event(s), the baseball game between Tigers and Indians @ Progressive Field...

Quicken Loans Arena, home of the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers


Progressive Field, home of the Cleveland Indians of the MLB




Quicken Loans again, BTW, many call it the "Q" Arena for short...


Progressive Field tour...






Made it to my seat... the Tigers practising in front of me...


There were A LOT of Tigers fans in my section and a lot of them walking around downtown and staying in my hotel and at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, almost like a second home to the Tigers fan base,


Scoreboard... nice...






Brandon Inge


Miguel Cabrera






Umpires probably contemplating how they're gonna screw the Tigers over again this time...


Indians Players getting ready to start...




First pitch of the game...


Austin Jackson gets a double to start...


Johnny Damon at the plate...


and gets out


Magglio Ordonez




Tigers lead 1-0 early...








Brandon Inge at the plate...


Singled to first












Indians scored two runs in the bottom of the 2nd to lead, 2-1, then the next inning Detroit got another run to tie the game at 2.


But Scherzer's time was limited after what happened next








Indians scored 2 more runs in the bottom of the 4th inning and 4 more in the bottom of the sixth...


To make it 8-2, ouch...






Needless to say, the Tigers didn't have it so good in Cleveland... apparently the Indians have tasted more success against the Tigers than any other team in the MLB at home...




All the Indians faithful cheering in the top of 9th, knowing their team will likely succeed...


... and they did. Indians won, 8-2.


Indians teammates congratulating eachother after a well-played game.






However, even though I am a Tigers fan, I was a good sport, stuck around till the very end and watched the fireworks
































Over 22,000 in attendance, not bad.


Outside the stadium after the game ended








The Q Arena and AT&T Building...


Terminal Tower and other buildings

Well done! When I lived in Cleveland, I use to eat at Mama Santa's on Mayfield all the time! Great food there!

Plentiful residentials there are gems. The apartment with the pillars stands out.

Any areas with brick row-homes in Cleveland ? (Like Cincinnati)

This may sound crazy, but Tremont vaguely reminded me of New Orleans when I visited a couple months ago. The shady tree-lined streets, historic homes and serene neighborhood parks felt a little like the Big Easy to me.

I love Cleveland!

Nice pictures. You had some good seats for the game.

The Cleveland Clinic looks like it fuels the growth of the region's economy. I've heard about a lot of people from the eastern half of the US and much of Canada going there for treatment.

It actually does, a lot of sports athletes and celebrities have gone here for treatment, including, I remember Teppo Numminen when he played for the Buffalo Sabres. It definitely helps fuel the region's fragile economy, but I don't know what else would.

Cincinnatti is an older city with a lot more brick apartment buildings & rowhouses than Cleveland.

Still, as in the photos, Cleveland has a remarkable variety of housing types.

Some of the East Side neighborhoods like Hough had blocks of large multi-story brick apartment buildings rivaling those in Chicago.

Other districts had sprinkings of brick row houses.

Various types of 1 & 2 story frame houses predominate on the West Side & in much of the East Side.

However, a lot of houses & buildings in Cleveland are empty owing to the population decline & many have been torn down.
