The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum was located in Cleveland ostensibly because DJ Alan Freed coined the term 'Rock and Roll' during his radio years with WJW-Radio in the city and because he helped organize the Moondog Coronation Ball on March 21, 1952 in the city, generally held as the first rock and roll concert.
I was drawn to this image by the strong colors - the red of the brick, the green of the siding on the building and the yellow of the leaves on the tree.
Walking around to the other side, the stamp reads, 'FREE', which is intriguing, because it couldn't possibly have been free. It must have cost something.
I always find public art fascinating. While walking from the Ritz-Carlton in Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, I'd sauntered through Erieview Plaza and behind Cleveland City Hall to emerge into Willard Park.
The two bridges in this view span the river at Carter Road. The blue bridge is active and carries the road traffic. The rusting bridge in front of it carried one of the railway spurs that used to serve the industrial area known locally as The Flats.
Coming back later in the afternoon we were presented with this view of Windsor Castle from the river.
