Ella, you are correct!

^ Yay!  How about these pics??

ella, the first is the terra-cotta trim on the Grand Arcade building in the Warehouse District. The second is the former Orthodox church on Detroit Avenue - I want to say it's at West 58th.

^Right on!  Good eye MayDay!

nerds, all of you.

I thought you said we were dorks - which is it?

This one should not be to hard.

 

 

Steelyard Commons industrial remnant?

^collinwood train yard?

Round 2 for MayDay's trivia pics! :-)

 

#6 - southern facade of the Standard Building - guessed by StrapHanger

 

#7 - chandelier at Tower City - guessed by the pope

 

#8 - (Hint - You can dine on 9 but it's not a food court!) Constantino's on West 9th, guessed by ella

 

#9 - The Leader Building - guessed by StrapHanger

 

#10 - (Hint - get to the Pointe!) Blue Pointe Grill (at the Hoyt Block in the Warehouse District - guessed by Straphanger

 

#11 - Superior Avenue facade of the Rockefeller Building - where an addition was added in the early 1900s - guessed by wimwar

Okay - this is tricky - I want not only the building, but the significance of this section ;-)

 

Smackem, You are a winner!!

Mayday,

 

I think #6 is the blank western wall of the Superior Building (but if not it is the blank southern wall of the Standard Building overlooking the Old Stone Church)...I know naming two is cheating, sorry.

 

Is #7 the chandelier in city hall?

 

#9 the Leader Building?

StrapHanger, correct on #6 and #9!

seven is a tc chandy. (i think)

Correct, your holiness!

MayDay - I think it's time to start dropping a couple of hints on the remaining trivia photos.  That Pizza one is driving me buggy - trying to think of a food court with generic signs like pizza, subs, etc instead of brand names.  I've never been to Dine on Nine at BP bldg, but that's the only one I could come up with.  Doesn't look like the Halle Bldg (unless it's been renovated to remove the Cabaret theme?).

Fair enough - I added some hints :-)

Is #8 Contstantino's on W.9th??

MayDay, did anyone get your #4 or #11 ... those have been killing me.

ella, you're absolutely right!

 

8Shades, no one has guessed either of those (yet). I added a hint for #4 :-)

OK, #10 must be Blue Pointe in WHD, just to clear that one off the list so we can concentrate on #4 and 11.

#11 Rockefeller Building--its where an addition was added.

Yes, and yes! Good job, guys!

#4 is tough. I am throw off by the hint. Why is the last HO totally capitalized? Is that a message? The only thing that I associate with Santa Claus is the ol' Higbees. Is it Higbees??

It is indeed Higbees - the "Ho ho HO" is how the deranged Santa Claus in "A Christmas Story" greeted Ralphie. For those who don't know, that scene and many others were filmed in different Cleveland locales.

Is it on the Prospect side of Higbee's?

Yep!

I won't torture you like MayDay.  :-o :whip:

I will only show you one at a time.

 

I guessed a few already, so I'll let some others have a crack :-)

I know where that is, but I don't know its name.

Are there 1950's style aluminum awnings inside those arches? - what kind of remuddling is that?

I'm thinking it's a church steeple on Euclid Ave...the south face has a ladder in one of the upper windows.  I'm not sure of the name or the intersection, so I'll have to do a little investigating.

 

then again, I could be waaaay off!

I'm 98% sure Mister Good Day is right. I think it's at Euclid and 40th and I believe it's called St. Paul Shrine. I only know b/c I had a good amount of time to look at it while trying to bicycle through the ECP pedestrian maze at that intersection.  :wink:

I'd say MGD is 100% correct.

He is correct!

Very good.

 

Who's next?

 

 

Are there 1950's style aluminum awnings inside those arches? - what kind of remuddling is that?

 

Those look like copper, which turns green in the elements.

Ok, how about this one... (Wimwar & B12 are forbidden)

 

George Segal sculpture on the Lakeside entrance to the Justice Center :)

^Spoken like a person who has been there often 

Actually, that's the one building in downtown Cleveland that I've never set foot in (knock on wood).

damn, one i actually knew

I'm a big fan of public art, but those things are creepy. Always weirded me out when I would sit on those benches.

there are just so, so, so white.

Ok, here's a new batch! :)

 

Commercial building - Center Street in the Flats - guessed by X.

 

Hart Crane Park in the Flats - guessed by Straphanger

 

Metrohealth Medical Center - guessed by the pope.

 

Entrance to Lake View Cemetery, guessed by CtownD.

 

Detail of bay window of Huron Square Apartments/Huron at East 9th - guessed by Straphanger

uhh...#14 metrohealth?

Oh man, I love #13: Hart Crane Park in the flats- one of my favorite spots on the river.

 

#16 is the funny bay window thing (one of two?) on the apartment building on the north side of Huron just East of E9th Street.

 

#12 is so familiar but I'm not gonna cheat and make multiple guesses, especially when others on this board will get it right on the first shot.

Right on all counts!

#12 is a small commercial building on Center Street in the Flats.  They are advertising artist lofts/offices for lease.

#15 - The entrance to Myers University on Euclid Aveue

Correct, X!

 

Incorrect, musky - good guess and I see the resemblance, but that isn't it! :)
