2024 In-Person Tours
August + Sept | Saturdays | 10am
University Circle emerged in the late 1880s when Western Reserve College and the Case Institute of Technology moved to the Circle. Its history is even more fascinating as a residential neighborhood, a transit hub, and a concentration of great public spaces. Today, University Circle is Cleveland’s largest concentration of economic, culture, education, and medical facilities and was recently named the Nation’s top cultural district.
Character you may meet along the tour: Adella Prentiss Hughes and Stephanie Tubb Jones.
