Cleveland Heights: Inner Suburb Built on the Heights Above the City
Cleveland Heights sits on a plateau east of Cleveland, separated from the lakefront city by a steep escarpment along Cedar Glen and Mayfield Road. The community developed between 1890 and 1930 as streetcar lines extended east from the city and wealthy Clevelanders built estates on the cooler, higher ground. The Van Sweringen brothers developed Shaker Square to the south, and Cleveland Heights attracted similar planned residential neighborhoods during the early twentieth century.
Severance Hall, home of the Cleveland Orchestra, sits near the western edge of Cleveland Heights at University Circle. The orchestra moved into the building in 1931, and renovations completed in 2000 restored the Art Deco interiors while adding a new stage house. Cain Park, a 16-acre municipal park and outdoor amphitheater, hosts a summer arts festival that has drawn regional performers since 1938.
The Coventry Village and Cedar-Lee districts serve as two walkable commercial corridors. Coventry grew into a counterculture center in the 1960s and 1970s around Tommy's Restaurant and the Coventry Yard shops. Cedar-Lee developed along a different commercial trajectory with a mix of independent restaurants, the Cedar Lee Theatre, and small retail. Both areas continue to anchor the city's evening and weekend activity.
