Cleveland Landmarks Commission
The Cleveland Landmarks Commission is a commission responsible for determining whether buildings, sites or historic districts are eligible for designation as landmarks in the city of Cleveland, Ohio.[1] As Cleveland has many historic streets, districts, and buildings, the commission is charged with weeding out what buildings, districts, and streets are of potential interest to the people of Cleveland, Ohio and the nation of the United States in general. Two of the oldest buildings in the city that are listed on the Landmarks Commission are the 1824 Dunham Tavern Museum (which is located in the Central neighborhood of the city)[2] and the 1855 Old Stone Church located on Public Square.[3]
