Earlier temple directories list Wat Buddhavachanaram at 8609 Denison Avenue in Cleveland. A September 2024 account states that the temple moved from Cleveland to Elyria in 2011; an August 2011 report describes the purchase and renovation of the former Grace Brethren Church at 1305 Nash Avenue. The Cleveland address is historical, not a current visitor location. (OHIO (OH); Cambodian-American Buddhist Association highlights ...; Buddhists celebrate new temple in Elyria)
