Shopping

Like all American cities, Cleveland offers excellent shopping opportunities. Items are inexpensive and in abundant supply and variety. Cleveland-themed souvenirs popular with visitors are, of course, rock and roll memorabilia and they can be found at Daffy Dan's Rock'n'Roll Heaven/Cleveland Souvenirs, 2101 Superior Avenue. A state sales tax of 7% applies, which cannot be refunded. Stores are open daily 1000-2100. On Sundays, some stores may open 1200-1800.

Those interested in the classic American department store experience, Dillard's Department Store in Public Square is the place to buy home furnishings and clothes. Connected to Dillard's is the US$400 million development called The Avenue at Tower City Center, whose lower level is a converted train depot and houses upmarket shopping, including names like Brooks Brothers, J Crew and Nine West. America's first enclosed shopping centre, the Arcade, was built in 1890 on Euclid Avenue and is today three levels of speciality shops in an Atrium-style structure. Factory outlet shopping is also popular in Cleveland. The Aurora Premium Factory Outlets, 549 South Chillicothe Road, has 70 outlet stores, including Eddie Bauer, Polo Ralph Lauren and Liz Claiborn. Ohio's largest factory outlet store, featuring over 80 stores, is Prime Outlets at Lodi, 9911 Avon Lake Road, located in Burbank, a short drive south of Cleveland.
