It is a Small World
There will be an Answer - Let it Be
Continuing our journey to learning something new, our next stop is the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Ohio. This city was named after Moses Cleaveland, a surveyor from Connecticut who founded Cleveland in 1796 while surveying the Western Reserve.
Cleveland would go on to have the first electrified public square in 1879 (thanks to Charles Brush and his arc lamp), and become home to General Electric in 1892. It is also the city with the first indoor mall opening in the country in 1890.
Standing over Public Square is the Terminal Tower which when it opened in 1928, was the second tallest building in the United States. And if you needed some super inspiration, remember that Cleveland is where Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in the early 1930s.
Today, Cleveland is the home of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. The city’s own radio disc jockey Alan Freed both coined the term "rock and roll" and heavily promoted the new genre—and that Cleveland was the location of Freed's Moondog Coronation Ball, often credited as the first major rock and roll concert.
This photo is from the Rock & Roll of Fame featuring one of my favorite songs from the Beatles. “And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me. Shine until tomorrow, let it be.”
