House of Blues Cleveland opened in 2004 and is located in the East 4th St. entertainment district in the heart of downtown Cleveland. Retrofitted into the old Woolworth’s department store building and spanning 61,000 square feet, entrances open to the newly beautified and historic Euclid Avenue. House of Blues Cleveland pays homage with numerous pieces of local art done by artist Peter Wood and iron work throughout the venue in honor of Cleveland’s strong manufacturing history. In keeping with tradition, the House of Blues Cleveland displays the "Crazy Quilt" and keeps a metal box of mud from the Delta Mississippi underneath its stage.
