[[File:Flag of Ohio.png|thumbnail|right|300px|Flag of [[Ohio]] ]]'''Cleveland''' is a city in the state of [[Ohio]] located on the southern shore of [[Lake Erie]], and 60 miles from the [[Pennsylvania]] border in northeast corner of the state. Cleveland was founded in 1796, near the [[Cuyahoga River]] and was a manufacturing center for many years but now has a service based economy. In the 2000 US Census the city of Cleveland had a population of 478,403,<ref>[http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/SAFFFacts?_event=&geo_id=16000US3916000&_geoContext=01000US|04000US39|16000US3916000&_street=&_county=cleveland&_cityTown=cleveland&_state=04000US39&_zip=&_lang=en&_sse=on&ActiveGeoDiv=&_useEV=&pctxt=fph&pgsl=160 2000 Census ]</ref> however Greater Cleveland (Cleveland-Akron-Elyria-Mentor Combined Statistical Area) is a larger metropolitan area, with a population of 2,945,831 and is the 14th largest in the United States.<ref>[http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/GCTTable?_bm=y&-ds_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U&-CONTEXT=gct&-mt_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U_GCTPH1_US25&-redoLog=false&-_caller=geoselect&-geo_id=&-format=US-10|US-10S&-_lang=en 2000 Census ]</ref>

==History==Cleveland was once a major steel manufacturing center and even was an early center of the automobile industry before the latter centered in [[Detroit]], [[Michigan]]. The city reached its peak in the 1950s and early 60s, but began to decline after that, due in part to inept leadership and a changing business climate. Under the ill-fated mayorship of [[Dennis Kucinich]], the city defaulted on its loans. In the 1980s, [[George Voinovich]] took over as mayor and the city experienced something of a rebirth. The precursor to this was the Playhouse Square project. This project involved rehabilitating and restoring a series of 1920s theaters that had been abandoned and fell into disrepair. Although many viewed the project as a pipe dream, a few dedicated individuals made progress and the city's business community gave heavy support to it, and eventually the restoration effort became a great success and created a vibrant arts district. Both Kucinich and (especially) Voinovich were big supporters of this. Also in the 1980s, the flats district, on the Cuyahoga River, hosted a brief revival and several new buildings were built downtown. The revival continued into the 1990s while Michael White was mayor (Voinovich had become the Ohio's Governor by this point), when the Society Bank (now called Key Bank) built its headquarters on public square, new football, baseball, and basketball venues were built downtown, and the city's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame opened. Cleveland's fortunes declined in the 2000s, but recently there have been signs of a revival: The flats Flats are being revitalized and a number of major projects are underway downtown, many of which have been supported by the JobsOhio program created by Governor [[John Kasich]].

Cleveland is home to the [[NFL]]'s [[Cleveland Browns|Browns]], the [[NBA]]'s [[Cleveland Cavaliers|Cavaliers]], [[Major League Baseball|Baseball's]] [[Cleveland Indians|Indians]], and the [[American Hockey League|AHL]]'s [[Cleveland Monsters|Monsters]]. The Cavaliers rose to prominence in the late 2000s and 2010s under star player [[LeBron James]], who led the Cavs to the NBA Championship in 2016, giving the city it's first major sports title since the 1964 Browns won the NFL Championship.

The Indians have (by and large) been of the top MLB teams from the mid 1990s into the 2010s, winning three American League pennants and winning 10 Central Division titles during that time frame. However, they have not won a World Series since 1947; the longest such streak among active MLB franchises.
