The Great Lakes Geek's overall impression? This is another one of those world-class jewels that Cleveland has that hopefully will garner the recognition, and attendance, that it deserves. Friends from other cities have already marvelled after watching the videos. Hopefully Clevelanders will appreciate what we have in our own backyard.
