Do you think the new aquarium will become a major tourist draw for downtown Cleveland?

A draw...absolutely. A major draw, (ie the specific reason someone would plan TO vacation here) no.
That said, few "tourist cities" have just one draw. Vistors seek a variety of things to see and do whether taking the family for vacation or when event planners seek sites for meetings/conventions. I'm pleased to see Cleveland increasing its focus on tourism and feel that places like the science center, the aquarium, University Circle's fine arts attractions, Playhouse Square, the rock hall, a soon-to-open casino, the west side market complemented by nearby attractions like Amish Country, Cedar Point, Sea World, some nice and challenge golf courses, great eateries -- all work toward bringing/introducing people to our city.
