NEW! Ohio City

In the early 19th century two competing settlements vied for prestige and investment on both sides of the Cuyahoga River; Cleveland to the east and Ohio City (or City of Ohio as it was known at its 1818 founding) to the west.  Ohio City’s early civic, religious, ethnic, and commercial history was significant.  Its historic architecture and the diversity of the urban environment has brought new vitality to the neighborhood.

Hingetown Route
The Hingetown route explores Ohio City’s northern edge along Detroit and Franklin, where 19th-century commercial corridors and residential streets reflect the neighborhood’s early growth and character. Historic buildings have been carefully restored and is now a charming neighborhood where the past continues to shape its present-day energy.

Market District Route
The Market District route centers on the historic core of Ohio City, anchored by West Side Market and landmarks like St. Patrick Church and St. Ignatius High School. Surrounding streets lined with 19th-century buildings tell the story of a vibrant immigrant community, where historic storefronts and institutions continue to shape a lively, connected neighborhood.
