The Goodyear Airdock and the Wingfoot Lake blimp base, tied to a century of Goodyear airship construction. Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, the 1915 Tudor Revival estate of Goodyear co-founder F.A. Seiberling and one of the largest historic homes in the United States. Derby Downs, home of the All-American Soap Box Derby world championship since the 1930s.
