Greyhound Station (Cleveland, Ohio)

 Streamline Moderne (architecture), bus station, 1948_construction, 1940s construction

Major bus station in Cleveland. You can hop a Greyhound to a number of other major cities from here.

This building is among the finest examples of Streamline Moderne design in the USA. It was the largest Greyhound Bus terminal in the country when it was built in 1948. One of many terminals designed by Louisville based architect W. S. Arrasmith.

Cleveland is fortunate to have preserved its station, now on the National Register. Greyhound spent over $5 million restoring the building, completed in 2000. It was the largest project of its kind in Greyhound history. Indeed it would have been less expensive for Greyhound to construct a new building, but they were committed to preserving the architecture. Even after 70 years, the terminal still serves its original purpose.
