The vantage point is the title's main clue: the view is taken from a rise called Scranton's Hill, looking down on Cleveland. Cleveland was laid out in 1796 by surveyors of the Connecticut Western Reserve at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River, and by the later 19th century its lakefront, river flats and rail lines had grown into a major industrial and shipping center. Because the record does not give a date or maker, a view like this is worth reading as a record of that expansion, with the river, docks and rooftops showing how a lakeside town became a city.
