Things to do in Akron
Akron was once the Rubber Capital of the World, home to Goodyear, Firestone, B.F. Goodrich and General Tire, and Goodyear still has its headquarters here. That legacy has evolved into a cluster of polymer science and advanced materials companies supported by the University of Akron’s polymer programs, while FirstEnergy, health systems and logistics companies add to the economy. The city’s industrial wealth also left it the Seiberling family’s Stan Hywet Hall, one of the grandest country estates in the Midwest.
