Directions to the Nickel from Downtown Cleveland:

• Get on Interstate 90 West/71 South at the Ontario Street entrance, a block south of Jacobs Field.

• Follow it across the Cuyahoga Valley bridge, but don’t take the I-90 exit after the bridge. Stay on the main freeway, which becomes Interstate 71 South.

• Get off at the next right-hand exit, for West 25th/Pearl Road. This is a double exit with Fulton, you want the first ramp for Pearl.

• At the top of the ramp, turn right for Pearl Road south.

• Follow Pearl about 1¼ miles, crossing another long bridge, to State Road, which forks off to the left.

• Turn left onto State and go four short blocks to the first stoplight at Montclair. The Nickel is on the left corner.
