Greater Cleveland TOD initiative on track

/

A new initiative has started that, if successful, could reverse decades of urban sprawl, a hollowing out of Greater Cleveland’s urban core and an erosion of its transit system. Those conditions create a wide variety of problems that hurt the region’s environment, safety, economy, human health and exacerbates poverty.

Cleveland Clinic’s big projects are on the move

To say that the Cleveland Clinic has a lot of development activity on its plate would be a major understatement. And some of that $1.3 billion worth of construction at its Main Campus is already starting to manifest itself on the landscape.

The health care system is prepping the site for the first phase of its new pathogens center.
