In this episode, we explore how waves of migration—both international and domestic—shaped Cleveland’s neighborhoods, industries, and identity.
“In this episode, John Grabowski talks about using history to unlock the soul of the city”
In this episode, John Grabowski and Native American Historian John Bickers talk about Moses Cleaveland’s arrival to Northeast Ohio on July 22, 1796 and what first contact was like when he landed before the settlers arrived.
In this episode, John shares stories about Euclid Avenue, once known as “Millionaires Row,” which was home to some of the nation's most powerful and influential industrialists, including John D. Rockefeller.
When John D. Rockefeller became one of the wealthiest men in history, he made Cleveland the center of the world for a time. The ghosts of the robber barons still reside in the architecture and institutions of Cleveland, which keeps Rockefeller’s bones underneath a giant granite obelisk in Lake View cemetery.
Ryan and John discuss the legacy of the Warner and Swasey Company, which made some of the most sought after telescopes in the U.S.
Did you have a frozen dinner lately, or go out for ribs, or how about a can of Beefaroni? This tasty discussion focuses on foods that transformed the city and then went well beyond it. CLE was a "foodie" city long before the twenty-first century.
