When in Cleveland, see the arcades

I echo cnik70--the "other" arcade is the grander one, but both are well worth a peek when you're in Cleveland to, say, see the Rock Hall. Yay Cleveland!

That other Arcade

Submitted by cnik70 on Mon, 09/13/2010 - 6:10am.

While the Colonial Arcade is a beautiful place (very glad that it wasn't a victim of Cleveland's downturn) the Arcade pretty much right across the street shown here is far more ornate (and far more lively during the day).

Both of these sites are "must see's" during a visit to Cleveland.

Spittoons and mouldings with a swastika motif.

Not an orphaned shoe

Clean, but for an orphaned hat. Is there symbolism here between the conditions of the orphaned shoe pictures and this? Great photos on Shorpy.
