According to his origin story, Superman was born on the planet Krypton—but the “Man of Steel” actually has much more down-to-earth, Rust Belt roots. Located on Kimberly Avenue in Glenville, on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, is a modest, blue and gray three-story home. In front of the otherwise unassuming, privately-owned residence, a white fence is marked with a large red “S.” This was once the home of Jerry Siegel, the writer who co-created the comic book superhero with friend, illustrator, and fellow Clevelander Joe Shuster.
