Another great thing about Cleveland is a very comprehensive network of rail-based rapid transit and modern, new BRT lines. I'm personally not a big fan of the BRT, but it has been integral to the impressive transformation of the Euclid Avenue Corridor which has seen over $4 billion of reinvestment in the last five years including 4,500 new residential infill units.

I thought I'd do a diverse photo set of Cleveland life that is sewn together as a series of destinations along the Rapid system.
