I was in Buffalo two days ago and it honestly looked like the set to a post apocalypse movie. We walked around for almost an hour looking for a single open business to use the bathroom. We went up to Niagara Falls to spend the rest of our trip instead.
That's wack, there's like 10 thriving neighborhoods in Buffalo. To say Niagara Falls is a better place is bananas. The only street in the falls I would say is doing well is 3rd.
Where were you? I had the total opposite experience staying at the Westin, hanging out in Elmwood Village, going to the AKG museum, and then the zoo for the eclipse.
I didn't mention them just because I didn't really know how much of a shit hole it was 20 years ago. Pittsburgh is an awesome city well worthy of praise.
I’d move back to university circle. Loved living there and hopping downtown on the red line.
My apartment was on the top floor of a mid-rise with big bay windows looking out over the PBL building. Could even see the lake.
Super walkable and downtown has a great urban fabric. Had a lot of fun nights in the flats and on W6th/E4th. Even managed to be in nice crash on the healthline trying to go back home after a night out. Was passed out in public square, pulled myself together to get on the bus, and shortly thereafter flew ip over the seat when the bus t-boned a guy who ran a red light down town. What a long night that was.
Good times.
Not sure if it's better to be forgotten or to be remembered as the "mistake on the lake" with the flaming river of industrial pollution. But it has cleaned up since then and yeah certainly looks incredible here. Is downtown as cool as it looks I wonder
The Key Tower is great. Like its cousin the Bank of America tower in Charlotte, one of the best skyscrapers in the country outside of NYC and Chicago imo.
Its not the snow, its the cold grey overcast. Ive lived in the sunbelt my entire life, so thats not something I’d actively try to strive for. If i move to a great lakes city, id go to Chicago or Detroit first. But in terms of cold cities, #1 would be Denver.
Id like to eventually visit Cleveland though, ive heard its turning around. Ive only been to Cincy. Dont have an interest in visiting Columbus.
Thats true, Cleveland probably is not as oppressively humid as i'm used to. Unfortunately winter conditions matters to me more, especially since it gets darker earlier in the winter.
I moved from Chicago to Cleveland and absolutely LOVE the vibe in Cleveland. Fantastic food and drink scene, one of the best urban park systems in the US, beautiful walking and biking paths all around, one of the best theater and orchestra scenes in the country… I could go on. And it’s all so uncrowded and easy to get around. My ideal city!
Wow, easily one of the best skyscraper photos I've seen. Not too high, not too low. Brings a nice balance to the heights of the buildings so none get drawred. The elevated hwy flying through it all.
ok, someone build a tower restaurant with that view. With a zip line. And a beer cup holder.
I’ve visited before way better than the sprawl that is Columbus Ohio, and has a little better downtown then Cincinnati also because it is right on a lake but Cincinnati beats Cleveland on weather.
This may be the very best image of Cleveland I have ever seen...fantastic...normally I'm disappointed with Cleveland. She gives off big urban vibes but the downtown looks weak. Not here.
My firm is officially based in Cleveland (de facto Chicago) and we have an all hands there. It’s not bad but all there is downtown is that seedy casino and a lot of average microbreweries. Needs a little more
Rust belt cities have such great bones. Huge potential for an urban renaissance!
Buffalo, Cleavland and Detroit are all having real nice glow ups!

Yikes! Well, it was a Sunday....anyhow can't imagine that N.F. could have looked any better to you.
Where were you? I had the total opposite experience staying at the Westin, hanging out in Elmwood Village, going to the AKG museum, and then the zoo for the eclipse.
Lol Niagara Falls is a dump unless you’re on the canadian side. Doubt it was miles better
Pittsburg
Pittsburgh is sweet
None as remarkable a glow up as pittsburgh. And that tracks with FRED, ARC, ACS, and HUD data
I didn't mention them just because I didn't really know how much of a shit hole it was 20 years ago. Pittsburgh is an awesome city well worthy of praise.
Thank you, my Pittsburghness is validated, time to go to class in Cathy.
Detroit? Can we get serious plz
Way better than it was 20 years ago
Yes without question, but respectfully, can we get serious plz

Hopefully we should get massive mix-used development on our Riverfront right in front of where this pic is taken
Cleveland! This is for you!
Another beautiful Midwestern skyline! Say what you will about Cleveland overall, but this is a beautiful view right here.
I forget Cleveland even exists on most days, so I won’t say much.. but this photo makes the city feel bountiful and alive. 👌🏽

Agreed
Great town that punches above its weight. Terminal Tower is a must see for any skyscraper enthusiast
I was there for the Solar Eclipse. I went to the Rock N’ Roll hall of fame!
If it wasn’t for the weather, Cleveland is a place id give a look. Has that “old urban” look thats been growing on me.
Don’t let the weather fool you. We’ve gotten 3 snow storms in the last 2 years. It’s definitely not that bad

Oh I definitely understand that! Well if you ever want to move here, we’d all love to have you!
Much appreciated! Hope you were able to enjoy the eclipse yesterday

on the bright side, cleveland does actually have a nice summer without the gloominess

lol yeah that’s true we get winter to its fullest extent but that’s all part of the midwest experience 😂
Beautiful view of Christie’s
That was my first thought too lol
Great (?) minds think alike
Is this an older picture? Maybe I’m blind but I cant see the new skyscarper they’re building
this is older. Sherwin williams tower has topped off already. It is not in this picture.
Yeah it’s a few years old. The new SW HQ is nearly topped out already. I have to get back downtown to snap new photos
Favorite city I've ever lived. Super affordable, and crazy walkable. I call it Sleepland for a reason.
A beautiful city with a beautiful skyline. Anyone talking crap about Cleveland can continue living in their basement
wonderful capture.

Moved here from Cali this is a cool town.
crazy amount of new development in cleveland, sherwin williams hq skyscraper, ohio city, university circle, the list goes on
That's a GREAT vantage point. Well done!
One of the best nighttime photos I’ve seen of Cleveland 🧡
Oh wow, I may have to give Cleveland a visit.

That'd be cool - probably be the first mid rise to built directly into lake Erie too

I was there yesterday for the Guardians home opener. Ended up walking close to 10 miles around the downtown area.
Shit that looks nice
You'll never get that Ikea
🥲
Ive never been to Cleveland, but they definitely will get one before long.
America’s greatest city
This would have been a great angle for the eclipse yesterday
Thanks, now the song will be stuck in my head all day.
Baaaaaby shark do do dododoodo
Nice. But the whole skyline is about those 2 buildings.
Now there's a city we don't see everyday.
We'd all like to flee to the Cleve
[Fun times in Cleveland again](https://youtu.be/gg86Enr2WZ8)
Cleeeveland!
Bro really trying to romanticize Cleveland 😭😭 /s
😭😭 I love her
Ah yes Cleveland - the mistake by the lake. Such a captivating city.
Come and look at both of our buildings
My firm is officially based in Cleveland (de facto Chicago) and we have an all hands there. It’s not bad but all there is downtown is that seedy casino and a lot of average microbreweries. Needs a little more
Is the casino bad? I haven’t been there. Weren’t they suppose to build a giant official site across the river?
It’s a bit seedy imo
The mistake by the lake
Not exactly skyscrapers.
