Starting out with general views; most of these were shot on Kodacolor 100 film.

1978

Airport Rapid station at Terminal Tower

The Market Street Exchange restaurant in 1978, now Great Lakes Brewing Company. This restaurant renovation was
new at the time, as I recall. The basement serving area had just been opened.

1979

Cleveland Hopkins

Views from Edgewater Park

West Side Market

Then-new Amtrak Station.

1985

BP Tower nearing completion

Views from Terminal Tower. You can see the Hulett Unloaders along the lake shore by the coal piles

1988

Public Square at Christmastime.

1990

Smoldering ruins beneath the Lorain-Carnegie (Hope Memorial) Viaduct on a muggy Sunday morning in 1990.

A grainy crop from a 1985 photo from Terminal Tower shows the large industrial installation that stood on the site. I don't know the history of it, but it looks like it could have been a foundry, forge or rolling mill.

2003

Labor Day Weekend; these were shot on 120 Fuji Provia 100F transparency film using a Mamiya 7 rangefinder
camera with a 65mm lens and a 2.8 Rolleiflex twin-lens reflex with a fixed 75mm lens, made in 1955, that I bought
used in 1967.

Compare the following two shots from the same vantage point (with different cameras):
