Flats East Bank

Flats East Bank

The east bank of the Cuyahoga River is on its way back, largely due to the $275 million Flats East Bank Development. This large project, which will be completed in phases, will completely redevelop what was a deserted entertainment district into a thriving mixed-use office, residential and entertainment destination.

Phase one of the project opened in May 2013 and features a new 18-story, 500,000 square foot office tower, the first new construction office tower in Downtown in more than15 years. The Ernst & Young Tower is the new home for Ernst & Young, Tucker Ellis & West LLP, Northwestern Mutual, Gilbane Building Co., Stern Advertising, and more. In addition to the new class A office space, the Flats East Bank featires Cleveland's first Aloft Hotel, which opened in June 2013 and features 150 rooms, 3,000 square feet of meeting space and a gym.

Phase two of the project focuses on retail and housing, and several tenants were announced in early 2013. The most significant piece of this phase is the new 140-unit apartment building at the river's edge. Also planned are five restaurants, including Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill, Ken Stewart's, Lago, Flip Side and Dos Tequilas. Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill will be a regional entertainment draw in what is considered one of the most under-served country music markets in the nation.

As the development continues to grow, it will expand on retail, residential and office opportunities-all with exceptional views of the downtown skyline, Lake Erie and the Cuyahoga River.
