Steeped in long-standing history, Cuyahoga River is the very reason that sparked the massive environmental revolution in the country. A raging fire caused due to industrial waste in the mid-20th Century was the catalyst. This serpentine river meanders along diversified terrains of northeast Ohio, eventually embracing Lake Eerie. Originating due to glacial activity in the last ice age, the river is nothing less than a boon to the country. Having largely sculpted the Cuyahoga Valley, the river has carved out astoundingly breathtaking landscapes like gorges, canyons and pristine, cascading waterfalls. Buttressed by an array of jubilant creeks and streams, this iconic river is where a rich biodiveristy unfolds. Its banks a haven of herons and bald eagles, the river is also fringed by droves of delightful sycamore trees. Its banks flecked by a string of enormous dams, the Cuyahoga River is one of the most priceless possessions of the country.
When Cleveland disc jockey Alan Freed coined the phrase “rock and roll,” he was laying the foundation for a cultural phenomenon and, incidentally, this museum. In 1986, three years after the creation of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, Cleveland became the home of the dramatic glass and steel pyramid called the Rock Hall, designed by the architect I. M. Pei. With an impressive multimedia permanent collection and continually changing temporary exhibitions, visitors can enjoy listening to songs, watching films, and looking at rock memorabilia ranging from a Cub Scout shirt worn by Jim Morrison to Madonna's bustier.
