Wild Stories from the Heyday of The Flats
Dave Grunenwald has really made his mark on Northeast Ohio! As Vice President of Development for Jacobs Investments, he was a part of the team that opened Nautica Entertainment in the Flats back in the ’80s. He was on the front line of the heyday of the Flats. And, has plenty of stories about the rise in the ’80s, and the fall in the ’90s. And, the resurgence happening today!
Dave Grunenwald Bio
Dave Grunenwald is a proud grandfather who was born, raised, and educated in Northeast Ohio. He has worn many hats in his professional life. Now “semi-retired,” Dave has been an influential real-estate developer and attorney in Northeast Ohio for the last 30+ years. David is also an esteemed activity book series author and children’s series author. He’s still active with Jacobs Investments, but spends more time focusing on his Grandparent Merit Badges™ series and his Lucas and Emily’s Adventure series.
The goal of the Cleveland Stories Dinner Party is to bring to life some of the fun, interesting stories about Cleveland’s past – from sports, to rock ‘n roll, to Millionaire’s Row, — the series will focus on tidbits from Cleveland’s past that will really thrill the audience. The Music Box is presenting this series in partnership with the Western Reserve Historical Society’s new Cleveland History Center. We think the Cleveland History Center is one of the most important museums in Cleveland. An unknown gem that Clevelanders should know more about, and support. It is the only museum in Cleveland dedicated to preserving and documenting the history of Cleveland. The Cleveland History Center includes two mansions, the Crawford Auto Aviation Museum, Chisholm Halle Costume Wing, Research Library, Kidzibits Hands-On Gallery, rotating exhibitions, and the Euclid Beach Park Grand Carousel.
