The Glass City

Despite its perennial rankings in the "Worst Cities" lists published by Forbes and Men's Health, Toledo is criminally underrated. It feeds the photography beast. With its plethora of lake freighters, heavy industry, historic urban architecture, and unique waterfront geography, Toledo has endless subject matter. There's also something about having a major shipping port that adds a sense of purpose and big city feel to a place. Toledo's port is one of the busiest on the Great Lakes.
