Sightseeing

The centrepiece of Cleveland is the recently built, striking Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, located on the waterfront in the hub of the downtown core, near the Great Lakes Science Center and the Cleveland Browns Stadium. To the north, is the Civic Center District, the city's business centre, home to banks, government and community buildings, gardens and fountains. West is the Warehouse District and the Flats District, the place to go for trendy restaurants and nightlife. North of the Warehouse District is the Tower City District, home to Public Square, a four-quadranted public area that forms the heart of Cleveland, along with the historic Terminal Tower building. The neighbouring Gateway District is home to Jacobs Field baseball stadium and Gund Arena, where professional basketball is played. East of the Gateway district is the Theater District, featuring the Playhouse Square Center, the largest performing arts centre in America outside New York, made up of five restored 1920s theatres.
