Parma-Powers Branch

Meeting Room A/B (150)

Explore the history behind this iconic Cleveland hub in Public Square.

See other dates and locations for this program on our events calendar.

In the 1930s, Cleveland saw terrific change. Despite the Great Depression, our city held on with jobs and progress.

Much of this progress was tied to the building of the Terminal Tower by the Van Sweringen brothers. These brothers had a future vision of Cleveland that hinged on its success as a railroad terminal. They saw a future in rail shipping and made certain that Cleveland was positioned to benefit from the building of a big, new terminal that welcomed commerce and personal travel.

Today we’ll show you some of the fascinating aspects of the Tower and the brothers who built it – along with the railroads that used this efficient, new terminal!
