Cleveland, the second most populous city in the U.S. state of Ohio, is home to 51 completed high-rises taller than 200 feet (61 m), 21 of which have a height greater than 300 feet (91 m). By both metrics, Cleveland has the largest skyline in Ohio, ahead of Columbus and Cincinnati. The tallest building in Cleveland is the 57-story Key Tower, which rises 947 feet (289 m) on Public Square.[1] The tower has been the tallest building in Ohio since its completion in 1991 and the tallest in the Midwestern United States outside of Chicago.[1] The Terminal Tower, 771 feet (235 m), is the second tallest building in Cleveland and Ohio. At the time of its completion in 1927, the building was the tallest in the world outside New York City.[2]

The history of skyscrapers in Cleveland began in 1889 with the construction of the Society for Savings Building, often called the city's first skyscraper.[3] One of the largest cities in the United States in the first half of the 20th century, Cleveland went through an early building boom in the 1920s, during which several high-rises, most notably the Ohio Bell Building and the Terminal Tower, were constructed. The centerpiece of the Cleveland Union Terminal rail station, the Terminal Tower was more than twice the height of any other building in the city. It dominated Cleveland's skyline for decades, as high-rise development ceased in the wake of the Great Depression until the late 1950s.

The city experienced a second, larger building boom downtown from the late 1960s to the early 1990s, even as deindustrialization caused the city's population to decline. Significant additions include the International-style Erieview Tower in 1964, the prism-shaped One Cleveland Center in 1983, and 200 Public Square in 1984, built as the headquarters for Standard Oil of Ohio. The boom culminated in the construction of the Key Tower, which surpassed the Terminal Tower as the city's tallest building in 1991. During the 1990s and 2000s, Cleveland saw few skyscraper construction projects, a notable exception being the Carl B. Stokes United States Courthouse. More high-rises were built from the 2010s onwards as a result of revitalization efforts downtown, including the Hilton Cleveland Downtown Hotel and residential towers such as The Lumen and Beacon. The 616 ft (188 m) Sherwin-Williams Headquarters, the city's tallest building in three decades, was completed in 2025 as the headquarters of the eponymous paint and coating company.[4][5]

The large majority of tall buildings in Cleveland are located in Downtown Cleveland, which sits on the southern shore of Lake Erie and lies northeast of the Cuyahoga River. Additionally, the city's skyline is mostly surrounded by Ohio State Route 2 and Interstate 90. Cleveland's skyline is the largest on Lake Erie and one of the largest on the American half of the Great Lakes. The University Circle neighborhood, at about 4.3 miles (6.9 km) east of downtown, contains a small number of high-rises. The area has seen a period of recent growth,[6] with its two tallest buildings, Artisan and One University Circle, completed after 2015.
