Fred Geis: Cleveland’s Visionary Developer
Fred Geis is one of the most influential figures in Cleveland's development and redevelopment story. As a former partner of Geis Companies, Fred—along with his family—has played a pivotal role in shaping some of Northeast Ohio's most iconic real estate projects, including The 9, Heinen’s Grocery Store, Midtown Tech Park, Cuyahoga County Headquarters, and more.
In this episode of Love in the Land, Austin sits down with Fred to discuss his incredible journey, from his early days as the son of German immigrants to becoming a trailblazer in Cleveland’s real estate scene.

He opens up about taking over his family’s business, pushing its boundaries, and developing a passion for tackling ambitious projects that others thought were impossible.
