CLEVELAND, Ohio -- An effort to establish a Lake Erie ferry between Cleveland's downtown port and Ontario appears dead, despite nearly $1 million spent in pursuit of the project.
Withering support on the Canadian side, a new vision for Cleveland's port and an unresolved U.S. tax issue appear to have sucked the life from the project.
The Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority's redevelopment plans no longer include a truck-and-passenger ferry terminal northwest of Cleveland Browns Stadium.
