Ohio Guide Photographs
Description: Original description reads: "Freighter passing the stadium. Cleveland Municipal Stadium and freighter entering harbor." Cleveland Municipal Stadium was completed in 1931 and at that time it had the largest individual seating capacity of any outdoor arena in the world, at 78,189 seats. It was one of the early multi-purpose stadiums, built to accommodate both baseball and football, as well as many other events over the course of its history. By March 1, 1997, due mainly to the moving of the Cleveland Browns football team to Baltimore, Cleveland Municipal Stadium had been completely demolished and the debris had been removed to clear way for construction of a new stadium.
