In 2016, the city of Cleveland completed renovation of the Public Square green space and it was decided that no civilian vehicular traffic should be allowed to traverse the park area.
To the east this main drag runs through the length of several downtown districts out into the St. Clair-Superior and Glenville neighborhoods of the city.
Unlike the westside which is fairly straight as it follows closely to the shore line of Lake Erie, the east side pattern of Superior twists and winds its way through the streets and communities of Greater Cleveland.
An address along Superior, especially downtown, is considered to be extremely exclusive, akin to Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles or Wall Street and/or Park Avenue in New York City.
In fact, a number of important businesses, offices, and government institutions are located along Superior Avenue solely because this is the case.
