Slavic Village, Cleveland. “Rooms to Let.” Down but not out: that’s the message the Slavic Village is sending to Northeast Ohio. Sure, the Cleveland community was ground zero of the financial foreclosure crisis but there are plenty of efforts underway to re-envision this proud neighborhood. In addition to Fleet Road construction nearly being finished, there’s the third annual Rooms To Let: CLE, which on Sat 5/21 transforms four East 54th Street homes into art installations. Basically, it’s an instant block party with snacks from Saucisson (artisan butcher), a beer garden sponsored by Platform Beer Company and live music. Curating the homes will be architect designer Sai Sinbondit (3620 East 54th), as well as artists Dana DePew (3725 East 54th), Amy Krusinski Sinbondit (3620 East 54th), Scott Pickering (3603 East 54th) and Chris Webb (3725 East 54th).
