Surroundings that refresh, too

The Urbean Café will occupy 1,100 square feet of the $17 million Intermodal Transit Center in downtown Akron. On average, the facility is visited by 4,600 people very day. Opened in January, 2009, the state-of-the-art building at 631 S. Broad Street serves passengers using Greyhound, Metro and other buses.

This building provides a large number of patrons for the Urbean Café and a clean, uplifting environment people enjoy. The Urbean Café will benefit from the facilities’ amenities:

• Free WIFI
• Museum-quality art work
• Interior and exterior seating
• Digital displays that provide travel information inside and outside
• Clean, comfortable restrooms
• More than 90 security cameras

The 14,000-square-foot building sets the standard for being “green.” Solar power panels in the roof provide enough energy to power 130 homes! Geothermal heating and cooling from 47 wells provide comfort to the facility’s visitors.
