East 105th Street and Euclid Avenue is the most famous intersection in the city of Cleveland Ohio. The legendary commercial junction consists of several blocks from East to West between 107th Street and 105th Street. With a storied history dating as far back as the 19th Century, the introduction of streetcars and trolleys brought hordes of Clevelanders to the corner block for shopping and entertainment. From nearby areas, banks, apartment houses, theaters, hotels, and commercial buildings also brought even more traffic to the site, which, in addition to appearances of legendary performers from the Vaudeville heyday, substantiated 105th and Euclid’s landmark status. Today, in spite of decades of resistance from property owners, the site has been overtaken by the continuing expansion of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation.
