Ohio lawmakers are proposing to put $62 million in state money toward building a land bridge to connect Cleveland’s downtown Mall with Cleveland Browns stadium and other lakefront attractions.
COLUMBUS, Ohio— , first unveiled in 2021 by the owners of the Browns, would be built over the Ohio 2 Shoreway and nearby railroad lines, providing a wide span over barriers that, for decades, have separated downtown from the stadium and its lakefront predecessor, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Great Lakes Science Center, and Lake Erie itself.
House Finance Committee members also added $5 million for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. The money, put in at the request of Republican state Rep. Jamie Callender of Lake County, would come from Ohio’s share of federal coronavirus relief funding included in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.
