Since 2021, FreshWater managing photographer Bob Perkoski has been capturing and sharing the images he shoots of people in Cleveland going about their everyday tasks in our #StreetsofCLE section.

Sometimes they are walking someplace, other times they are selling their wares on the streets, or sometimes they are just waiting for the bus. And sometimes, even Bernie Sanders in his mittens pops in the frame.

As we near the end of 2023, we thought we’d share some of Perkoski’s favorite #StreetsofCLE in the series.
