Being someone from SoCal and being someone who has always been around other Asians, this was a wake up call that I was actually blessed my entire life and didn't know how good I actually had it. I remember going through this Asia Plaza to see what little semblance it might have to the life I once knew or to see if I could even connect with the community here and it was quite grim. Even after COVID, even after mass gentrification and the massive downfall of LA or SF Chinatown is better than this place at it's peak. It's so grim and depressing. No shade to the people who make their living here, and what they do for the small community that resides here (because they have nothing else), but there's barely anything. Limited selection in terms of the stores that they have there and the number of stores. Value-wise, you're paying a premium because there's no competition if you think about it. Service-wise, just normal. Empty and closed storefronts. Random trinkets here and there. Very aged, outdated, and it's really the frog in the well scenario. You don't know what the outside world really is like, because you've been in the well your entire life. That Black Butler wall scroll on the wall with nothing around it is a testament to the landscape here. I'm just happy I never have to come back.

Depending on where you live, sometimes you don't want to drive to Crocker Park mall in Westlake or to Beachwood mall in Beachwood so this small mall is a nice option. The parking here is tight but I've always been lucky to find a space to park my car. Overall, this is a decent mall for the area. *** - This is my 177th total Yelp review. - I have written 131 Yelp reviews in 2018.

The Creative Hangars (former City Goods) is a collaborative space of local makers in Hingetown…read more(Ohio City). I remember when City Goods was just born, and I first spotted their construction from the Church & State apartment rooftop. I figured that they must be new little homes, but they were actually shops full of local goods. I didn't even know what a hangar was until seeing these futuristic looking U shaped shops. The space recently transitioned from Ohio City ownership to the ownership of the founder (Sam Friedman of Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve). It's such an interesting destination in the city. NEW CREATIVE HANGARS: The City Goods used to have seven hangars encapsulating shops and a bar. As the Creative Hangars, the shops have been condensed to a single hangar with goods from about ten makers inside. The remaining hangars are vacant. While smaller scale, the remaining hangar is full of finds and same creative spirit. If you haven't visited in a while, please know that the same level of artistry lives on. MERCHANDISE: I stopped in many times at the former City Goods. I stopped in at the new Creative Hangars concept at the beginning of October. There is so much treasure hidden inside - shirts with local flair, pottery, wooden art, tees, cards, jewelry, tea, decor, baseball caps, and skincare. The first floor is full of souvenirs and CLE-spirited merch. Clothing goes up to XL. The second floor is devoted to Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve. During my visit I purchased a skin mask and a hair mask for self-care day from Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve. If you haven't used their products or heard their story, you must. It's a high-quality, botanically based local brand. Prices are pretty reasonable across the board considering the uniqueness and talent. I also love that most merch at the hangar features the Hope Memorial Bridge guardians. I love this architecture so much and obsess over everything with the guardians of traffic. SERVICE: The employee working at the store is also a jewelry vendor. She's so lovely and welcoming. I talked to her for a long time about the hangars' transition and the makers inside this space. It was great to get the human factor behind their merchandise. I feel like these stories often get lost at local shops. By the way, I learned that new artists' merchandise is welcome into the space in case anyone who is a creator is reading this review. I'd recommend a visit to anyone looking for self-care products or unique souvenirs. If you're visiting Cleveland, stop in to take away something unique to remember your time here. If you're from the Land, you'll love sporting your one of a kind CLE merch at the next sports event. I will be back very soon to shop for more Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve products.

I like to put a lot of thought into the items I give family and friends around the holidays and this is the perfect place to visit if that's your style, too. Everything here is locally made and thoughtfully curated by the owner. Bonus points for being woman-owned by the way. They carry everything from beautiful jewelry to high quality bath and body products as well as Cleveland sports items, clothing, and art. I was able to grab my dad a Cleveland Browns Christmas ornament. I know he'll love it and likely keep it up all year round as decoration. The prices were also pretty fair given that the items are not mass produced. I highly recommend you pay them a visit. Whether it's for the holidays, a special occasion, or to simply treat yourself. You're bound to find something special.

Arcades were once a place to be when downtown shopping felt sophisticated. And so, Cleveland had…read moremultiple arcades including the 5th Street Arcades (not to be confused with the Arcade across the street). There were once two standalone arcades, the Colonial (built in 1898) and Euclid (build in 1911). These two structures were combined into the 5th Street Arcades. These arcades hold a lot of history and retail. AMBIANCE: The 5th Street Arcades are adorned with history - ornate ceilings and trims. Don't forget to look up and take in all the beauty. The space includes two walkways accessible from the Euclid Avenue and near East 4th. Should you use a ride share, consider the existence of various entrances. Arcades include retail and dining. There are only a handful of businesses. I most recommend Geraci's pizza (delicious pizza in diner setting), Intro (for fun outfits for your downtown outings), Coco's Selfie Studio (for documenting your family's moment), Rocket Fizz (for candy nostalgia), and Colossal Cupcakes (for the most Instagrammable sweets). You'll also find something very nostalgic - shoe shine! Ensure that you check the working hours of these establishments, most stores remain closed on weekends and have odd hours. Check retail and dining directory on the 5th Street Arcades website. HOLIDAY MARKETS: The 5th Street Arcades will be hosting Holiday Makers Market this Christmas season. They will be on weekends - Saturdays and Sundays. PARKING: Parking is available at various parking lots downtown (Euclid Avenue or by E 4th Street). If you're staying as a tourist in the city, it's an easy walk from all the hotels on Euclid Avenue. Personally, I enjoy the 5th Street Arcades for the architectural experience and not so much the businesses. There is nothing in the building that would consistently keep me coming back. The Arcades now stand mostly deserted. It would have been great to see them years ago in their full vibrancy.
