The cast of characters that built their mansions on the Row were the celebrities of their time. The public was hungry to read about these famous residents of “the Row” and the Cleveland newspapers wrote stories that fulfilled that demand. Daniel Ruminski, Cleveland’s Storyteller, has created yet another new and fascinating story about the lives of Cleveland’s best known millionaires. He will walk you through the daily lives of some of Euclid Avenue’s most famous, their weddings, their travels and their misfortunes. They left behind fascinating legacies which we still appreciate to this day. If you loved Downton Abbey, you will also love “Life on the Row”.
