CLEVELAND, Ohio - “The Square’s bigger than all of us,” said Edwin’s owner Brandon Chrostowski. “It’s truly the gateway to the East side, so Shaker Square’s a big deal.”
The former owner of Shaker Square, the Coral Company, foreclosed last March and a receiver has run the district for the last 13 months. But Chrostowski questions whether Cleveland should involve itself financially. Chrostowski said the property is valued at about $5 million and the bank has the property overvalued.
