Cuyahoga County • April 23, 2025
Good morning, Cuyahoga County. Steel is rising along the Cuyahoga River, and with it, Cleveland's future takes tangible form. The Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center now emerges from the East Bank, transforming from ambitious renderings to 210,000 square feet of reality. This cornerstone of Bedrock's riverfront vision represents something increasingly rare in urban development – plans actually materializing instead of forever remaining in the "coming soon" category.
Meanwhile, Cleveland continues building its reputation as Broadway's unexpected launchpad, with "Death Becomes Her" joining the city's growing collection of national tour premieres slated for 2026. And for those with musical nostalgia, Detroit rock legend Alice Cooper is reuniting with his original bandmates after a 51-year hiatus for "The Revenge of Alice Cooper." It seems 2024 is shaping up to be a year where long-awaited projects finally come to fruition – both in steel and on stage.

🏙️ Cleveland's riverfront transformation takes shape with rising steel. The Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center is emerging on the East Bank of the Cuyahoga River, with 210,000 square feet of space set to open in 2027. This facility will serve athletes of all levels, including becoming the training and treatment center for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The development represents a crucial component of Bedrock's massive riverfront project, which many see as key to Cleveland's future. Local real estate experts are celebrating the visible progress, noting how refreshing it is to see planned development actually materializing instead of remaining just renderings.
🎸 Detroit rock legend reunites with original band after 51 years. Alice Cooper is set to release "The Revenge of Alice Cooper" on July 25, featuring 14 songs with his original bandmates Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway, and Neil Smith. Cooper told Billboard it feels like 1973 again, saying "it's like this is our next album after 'Muscle of Love.'" The album's first single, "Black Mamba," premiered April 22 on Cooper's radio show, and fans can catch "The Godfather of Shock Rock" on tour with Judas Priest, including a stop in Michigan on October 2.
🎭 Cleveland lands another major Broadway tour premiere. Playhouse Square will host the launch of "Death Becomes Her" national tour in fall 2026, adding to the city's growing reputation as a Broadway launchpad. This dark comedy musical, based on the 1992 film about frenemies discovering an eternal life potion, has become Broadway's highest-grossing new musical this season. Cleveland joins "The Notebook," "Hell's Kitchen," and "Spamalot" as the fourth show to begin its tour in the city, partly thanks to Ohio's tax incentives for theatrical productions. The tour will eventually visit Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver and other major cities.
