A unique townhouse development, one of the first that would be built directly facing the Towpath Trail, was on a fast path toward design approval and a zoning change.

It’s a factory name that conjures thoughts from classic Road Runner cartoons. But few are laughing from the enduring health and economic burdens that the long-closed National Acme plant, 170 E. 131st St., is having on Cleveland’s East Glenville and Collinwood residents.
