I'm writing a master's thesis on Prospect Ave in Cleveland (mainly downtown stretch) and I'm pretty new to Cleveland so I have a harder time visualizing everything as it was in past decades.  I was wanting to know if you all have any suggestions, on what I should mention in my master's. 

 

also,

 

Please share your memories of Prospect Ave or any impressions of had of it, negative or positive.

A Master's in what?  One thing I always found interesting about Prospect was that it was the center of many of the SRO hotels in Cleveland.  I always thought it would be interesting to trace their development, impact upon the neighborhood, and decline and disappearance.

master's thesis in history.

 

Right now I'm looking how Prospect became the low-brow side of downtown.  Yet it produced some of Cleveland most famous contributions to pop culture with Record Rendezvous and Chef Boyardee's restaurant.  Really in the early stages so I don't quite have an argument developed yet.
