Best of Cleveland 2016: Pokemon Go Spots

Capture all kinds of creatures at Kamm's Corners, North Coast Harbor and Solstice Steps.

Kamm’s Corners

This neighborhood’s leafy side streets mean you can quickly build up game miles and rid yourself of 2k eggs. But Common Grounds near Lorain Avenue and Rocky River Drive is the real goldmine. The 24-hour coffee shop has free Wi-Fi and is between two pokestops where players often drop lures, spawning all types of Pokemon in one location. “We’re seeing upwards of 50 to 60 people in here every night, nonstop,” says co-owner Matt Savon. kammscorners.com

North Coast Harbor

Although new park hours now limit players swarming the lakefront between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m. when rare spawns are more frequent, the harbor is still a popular place for water-based Pokemon. “This Pokemon game has really helped us expose a whole new audience to things that are happening down there,” says Heather Holmes, director of marketing and public relations for Downtown Cleveland Alliance. northcoastharbor.org

Solstice Steps

This peaceful pad for sunset selfies also welcomes those destined to catch them all. With its proximity to Lakewood Park — known to be a nest where a certain Pokemon spawn with higher frequency — and its lakefront locale, this five-tiered beaut offers a handful of pokestops. “We planned this as a place for tranquility and reflection,” says senior city planner Bryce Sylvester, “but people have used the space for all kinds of purposes.” Cook Avenue, Lakewood
