*** ok kjp -- you are going to london next -- i saw there is a cleveland square near your hotel -- its on you! ***

 

That tower has always been quite odd.

Great set of pics...love the Cleveland theme!

When I'm in London I always stay at the New Atlantic Hotel in Paddington/Bayswater.  Right across the street from the hotel is the Cleveland Arms Pub!  I had WAY too many pints of English ale there.

MrNYC, I shall post lots of pics, but I don't know if I can be as creative as you with that Cleveland theme! Veddy nice!

^ well if you happen to get a few pics of cleveland square and johnosu can of the cleveland arms pub i'd think we'd have it covered - heh!

I do have a few pics of the Cleveland Arms pub, I'll try to get one scanned. 

 

Do you know who/what Cleveland Street in London was named for?  Was it originally spelled with an "a" but dropped in honor of our Cleveland?  :-D

I actually wonder if it has to do with Cleves (I believe was an old provence like area in Germany) who produced Anne of Cleves who was the fourth wife of Henry the Eighth?
