Cuyahoga County Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument
Приєднався 10 тра 2019
Since 1894, the Cuyahoga County Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument has commemorated the over 9,000 individuals from the county who served in the American Civil War. Our commitment to commemoration goes far beyond the solemn tablets, striking bronze sculptures, and soaring shaft of the Monument itself. We regularly produce online content aimed at telling the stories of those who served in an engaging and entertaining manner. The Monument, located in the heart of Cleveland's Public Square, is free to visit as it has been since our dedication over a century and a quarter ago. Although the Civil War seems a distant event in history, we hope that we can bring alive the memories of the individuals who sacrificed in service to the Union and show how their actions shaped the United States of America as we know it today.

Beautiful film & music
wwe the miz and dolph ziggler are from cleveland
Very cool video
President Lincoln was a great President! Thanks for this video!👍❤️
Believe it or not Donald Trump used to be William Dennison Jr. This was one of his previous incarnations.
Cleveland looked like a much better city than it does today
That's how China looks today the air quality is full of soot we cleaned the air here by sending away manufacturing but the air is always going to be polluted somewhere
So sad!
My grandfather worked as a engineer at the terminal towers. I also remember Macy's department store. I loved the smells of hot nuts and candy as grandma would get a small selection. Thank you for this video brings back times when our country actually made things and families were actually together. Warm and fuzzy moments of fresh snow love and the warmth of the fireplace with laughter.
this is evolution in action. A lot of American cities suffered this fate......Times have changed and our society is decentralized. The urban paradigm is doomed to fade away.
Cleveland was beautiful before it was carved up with freeways!
A great man. 🙏
Before I moved to Arizona, the Civil War memorial had been closed for years. Sometime in the early 1990's, it had reopened. I went there and it used to be, that there were photographs of the Ohio soldiers high on The walls. I looked at all of those soldiers and one really stood out to me. It was eerie to me because it seemed to follow me with its eyes. I then looked hard at that picture and wondered who it was. Finally, I left that memorial. It had been closed as long as I lived in Cleveland. I'm glad I got to see the insides, before i left for Arizona. I guess the year was either 1990- 1991ish.
At 2:34. I am nearly certain that one can see St. Theodosius (?sp) Russian Orthodox church in the background.
Beautiful, scenic city.
Thank you for posting this. My grandfather owned Gentilly Garage on Woodland somewhere near where the ballpark is now, I dont have much info but it was apparently across from a nut factory. I keep looking through these old videos desperately hoping to find a picture of the garage.
So sad to think we upgraded Cleveland from a world center of manufacturing and technology…. To another American city filled with gangs and drugs and shootings and post industrial apocalyptic wasteland…. At least we have proper pronouns!
Love our wonderful city.
I have enormous respect for Lincoln and the hard decisions he had to take to preserve the Union. I'd like to point out that when he passed through Cleveland on his way to take the presidency, many loved his arrival, but the Plain Dealer ripped him mercilessly from his policies to his personal appearance. They changed their tune once he showed his stuff as National leader.
Man its crazy to see how much Cleveland has changed over the years, and people are saying that this newer generation is causing mlre pollution on this earth but back then there was alot more pollution
Looks pretty similar now
I don’t know this Thomas Modly. However, him (1) firing this Captain and (2) then giving that speech to a group of pissed off sailors indicates that to me that didn’t have the emotional intelligence nor political savvy that I would expect out of a professional with even 5 years of experience in any large organization. One of the keys to leadership in the modern world is leading people NOT pushing them. He may be 100% right about the Captain’s motivations on sending that letter. However, he should have realized he needed buy-in from that Captain and the crew. Total lack of leadership communication on his part. Forcing Modly to resign was probably the right call.
The Garfield National Historic Site in Mentor, OH (near Cleveland) is educational, inspirational, and very well presented. Ranger Michelle Seddon gave us a personal/inspirational tour.
just got a job at a titanium mill wonder if it’s pretty much the same type of work as a steel mill I’ll find out soon ig
I grew up in Bedford . Loved Downtown Cleveland since I was kid I lived in Ohio City and Owned Art Attack in 1999 in 2001 moved to FLorida but Finally I am moving back and I am looking forward to a new life here again.
Welcome back!
My Dad briefly worked at that Sunoco station right at the beginning of the video pumping gas in the mid 1970s. I visited a few times there is a kid living in Cleveland. Very cool video.
I absolutely love rust belt cities. Wonderful grimy pre WWII buildings, bridges, and infrastructure. Best settings for noir films IMO. They are also the places upon which most authentic, detailed model railroad layouts are based. This period, or just sightly later, perhaps late 1940's to early '50s, is the choice for most since it legitimizes use of both steam and diesel.
May I mention that Gettysburg is properly pronounced Gett-IS-berg not Gett-EES-berg by the people living there and by the Gettys family that its named for.
Ironically, the acronym OVI in Ohio no longer stands for Ohio Volunteer Infantry, but now means Operating Vehicle Intoxicated or DUI. 🤦
Thanks 4 posting this. Amazing video. Perfect music too. I think about my grandparents.
Garfield was a superfluous asset of the Lincoln era. Though intelligent, better men had already answered the needs of his generation. His inspired speeches, in reality, addressed nothing of current value. Too bad he suffered so much over a decided outcome of American history. His death was absurd.
There is no sky just smoke and smoke stacks, the river would burn and when it did rain it was acid rain . Nelson Algren
Thanks For Sharing This My Brother/G\
Thanks for this video. I remember the street car going across the high level bridge! My family and my wife's also were part of the people that made it great. And I remember the smog. Good times and bad. My grandchildren will never know but the insults leveled on our city. I will subscribe.
Grim. Some green foliage might improve it.
Horrifying. What an industrial nightmare. Thank god that most of those factories shut down and big efforts have made over the years to clean up all of the pollution that they left behind. People actually go rowing in the cuyahoga river now
How you think you got here? Industry is what brought prosperity, and WORK for thousands of people. Where are the jobs now?
What an awful situation for the families who had to work at the factories and live right next to them while being exposed to the fumes, smog, acid rain, noise, unpaved streets, etc. The men probably suffered from all kinds of cancer and died young while their wives worked all day tending to the children and doing house chores! The collapsing of heavy industry was terrible for Cleveland but the consequences of keeping such a polluting system was worse! Thus, I'm glad Cleveland is recovering slowly but surely and reinventing herself!
My grandpa moved up to Cleveland from Uniontown, PA in the early 50s looking for work. He ended up working in a steel plant here. It's really sad what Cleveland is now compared to back then...
Remarkable footage
Those were the days when Americans called themselves Americans and were very proud of it. Them were the days when America was a power house; an industrial might that was only second to none! And yes those were the days when people cared about what they made and how they made it. We had such iconic companies like Pratt & Whitney, TRW, and Jones & Loucklin steel just to name a few. Power houses that gave its all in the war effort in WW11 and beyond. It wasn't until the very late 70's and earily 80's that our politicians were the very ones that sold out our country to the Mexicans and the Chinese and gave away our jobs and our way of life in exchange for money. Those very politicians who sold us out call themselves Americans! Yea, right! They are just as much of a trader to this country as the trader who sells our secrets to foreign governments. I only wished that we had the America that we used to have, but that will never happen unless we all stick together, and I know that will never happen. I will be retiring soon, it's your world now PAY ATTENTION!
Freemasons being on both sides of the war, as always
Camp commander in scv for Mississippi division I'm also a recently raised mason following my grandfather's footsteps and masonry within the confederacy really interest me so thank you for this all lineal males except for my dad are freemasons dating to 1700's
I'm sorry for you.

The Northeastern United States was dynamic due to manufacturing, but all that has been vanished due to overseas competition.
Thank you. Very good.
Whoa cool collection of film. I was just down around the mill this afternoon and interesting to spot buildings that still exist. And all the area that's been gentrified.

The EPA really put a lot of these industries out of business. I remember when we were a powerhouse of industrial jobs, but working in those conditions had to be very hard. We are much better off with clean air and water.
The EPA was created shortly after the Cuyahoga River caught fire in the late 60's.
Thank God for the EPA. Perhaps you and I both would be suffering from Stage IV lung cancer right now if not for the EPA
