Good morning, Cuyahoga County. The skyline isn't the only thing changing in Cleveland these days. Ice Miller law firm is planting its flag in our city, recruiting talent from UB Greensfelder as part of its Midwest expansion strategy. This move comes as other firms like Thompson Hine are similarly growing their geographic footprints, signaling Cleveland's continued relevance in the professional services landscape.
Meanwhile, blank walls across the city are transforming into vibrant canvases thanks to Destination Cleveland's "Murals Across the City" project. Six large-scale artworks now brighten overlooked neighborhoods like Slavic Village and Detroit-Shoreway, where local artist Lisa Quine's colorful mural proclaims "The Land Where Anything Is Possible." With four more installations planned this summer, these Instagram-worthy attractions are drawing visitors to explore Cleveland's diverse neighborhoods while city officials anxiously await word about potential federal housing funding cuts.
