The keno question and the fixed point that matters
The documented facility figures for Jack Cleveland Casino list 1,609 slot machines, 119 table games, 28 poker tables, and 35 electronic table games. Keno is not named in those published reference figures, and this article does not have a current game-by-game floor inventory to confirm whether keno is offered today. What can be stated with confidence is where the venue sits, because that position is fixed and does not change with the floor mix.
Jack Cleveland Casino is located in the former Higbee Building at Tower City Center in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, United States. Its coordinates are 41.498658, -81.693295. The venue opened on May 14, 2012, and is owned by Vici Properties and operated by Jack Entertainment.
For a reader asking about keno, the practical move is to treat the game list as a live inventory item. The venue's own published floor directory or guest services channel is the authoritative source for which games are currently on the floor, because electronic and table game selections are revised as properties update their mix. This article can tell you exactly where the building is and how far it sits from a set of reference points, but not which specific game titles are running on a given day.
Straight-line distances to reference points
The distances below are great-circle measurements, meaning the shortest path over the earth's surface between two coordinate pairs. They are not road miles. Every figure is labelled as straight-line in the table, and the full set of documented pairs is shown.

Road distance is always longer than any straight-line figure. This article does not publish road mileage, driving time, or any travel time estimate, because those depend on route, traffic, border crossings, and road network geometry that a straight-line measurement cannot capture.
Why straight-line and road distance diverge
A great-circle line ignores everything on the ground. It passes over water, through terrain, across state lines, and through areas with no road at all. The road network, by contrast, follows usable corridors, bridges, interchanges, and population centers, which almost always adds distance.
For Jack Cleveland Casino, the nearest documented reference points are Detroit at 90.3 straight-line miles and Ford Field at 90.6 straight-line miles. Even those short figures cross Lake Erie's western basin, so the actual road route must follow shoreline and bridge corridors rather than the direct line. The same principle applies to every pair in the table: a straight-line figure is a coordinate-to-coordinate measurement, not a trip plan.
Crossing a state boundary or an international border adds further divergence. Toronto sits 189.7 straight-line miles away, but that measurement crosses Lake Erie and an international boundary, so any real journey involves border infrastructure and routing that no straight-line figure can represent. The table gives you the geographic relationship; the route is a separate question answered only by a mapping tool or the traveler's own planning.
Where the venue sits in its region
Jack Cleveland Casino sits in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, in the northeastern part of the state. Using the documented coordinates, Cleveland lies south of Lake Erie and north of the interior of Ohio. The venue is in the former Higbee Building at Tower City Center, which places it in the downtown core rather than on the city's edge.
Relative to the documented reference points, Detroit lies to the northwest at 90.3 straight-line miles, Pittsburgh to the southeast at 115.7 straight-line miles, and Buffalo to the northeast at 173.1 straight-line miles. Toronto sits to the north-northeast at 189.7 straight-line miles, and Chicago lies to the west at 307.3 straight-line miles. These directional statements come only from the coordinate positions, not from any road or rail corridor.
The venue is a fixed point. Your starting location is not. If a reader asks about distance from "me" or "my location," this article cannot resolve that reference point, because no such coordinate exists in the documented set. What the article can do is give the venue's fixed coordinates and the full table of documented reference pairs, so the reader can measure from their own position using any mapping tool that accepts coordinates.
What the keno question requires
The documented facility figures for Jack Cleveland Casino name slot machines, table games, poker tables, and electronic table games. Keno is not among the named categories in those published reference sources. That does not mean keno is absent; it means the published facility summary does not break out keno as a separate line item, and this article does not have a current floor inventory to settle the question.
Game availability at a casino floor is a live operational detail. Properties add, remove, and relocate electronic games, and table game mixes change with demand and floor configuration. A reader who wants to know whether keno is currently offered should check the venue's own published floor directory or contact guest services through the channel listed on the property's official site. The answer that matters is the one in effect on the day of the visit, not a static figure.
The same principle applies to any game-specific question. Slot machine and table game counts are documented facility figures at a point in time, but the presence of a specific game title or variant is not a fixed attribute of the building. The building's coordinates, its downtown Cleveland location, and its documented opening date are fixed. The game mix is not.
What to confirm before you go
Several items change between the time you read this and the time you arrive. The venue's own channels hold the current answer for each.
- Keno availability and game mix: Confirm through the property's published floor directory or guest services, because electronic and table game selections are revised.
- Operating hours and entry policies: Check the venue's official site, as hours and access rules are not static and are not published in this article.
- Road route and actual driving distance: Use a mapping tool with your own starting point, because this article publishes only straight-line coordinate distances.
- Border and crossing requirements: If traveling from Toronto or another international origin, confirm documentation and crossing procedures with the relevant authorities before departure.
- Parking and arrival logistics: The venue sits in downtown Cleveland at Tower City Center, so confirm parking access and any downtown traffic or event conditions through the property's arrival information.

How far is Jack Cleveland Casino from Detroit?
The documented straight-line distance from Detroit to Jack Cleveland Casino is 90.3 miles, measured great-circle between coordinate pairs. Road distance is always longer, and this article does not publish road mileage or driving time. The straight-line figure crosses Lake Erie's western basin, so any actual road route follows shoreline and bridge corridors.
Why does the article give straight-line miles instead of driving distance?
Straight-line distance is a coordinate-to-coordinate measurement that can be stated precisely from documented positions. Road distance depends on route, traffic, border crossings, and road network geometry, which change with every trip and every starting point. This article publishes only the documented great-circle figures and directs readers to mapping tools for road routes.
