Book Launch: Abandoned Cleveland by Jeffrey Stroup
Friday, February 8 @ 7:30pmOnce a thriving city whose economy soared on the backs of industrial powerhouses, and the booming steel industry, Cleveland saw the same fate as many other Rustbelt cities. As factory jobs moved overseas, this great city of culture and prosperity struggled to stay on its feet. A sharp decline in population throughout the 1970s and 80s left Cleveland with a multitude of abandoned structures.
Today the city is experiencing a renaissance. However, it’s not difficult to find decaying reminders of the city’s dramatic rise and fall. It is these relics of the city’s past that photographer Jeffrey Stroup strives to capture and preserve through the images in this book.
Join us for the book launch party, taking place during Walkabout Tremont
