Longtime homeowners in Cuyahoga County’s Circle East District could be eligible to get grant funding for home renovations and maintenance from the land bank.
The Cuyahoga Land Bank is thrilled to announce the selection of three exceptional development partners for its Circle East District initiative to revitalize the residential area at East Cleveland’s Eastern gateway to University Circle.
Neighborhood stabilization is a critical element of the Cuyahoga Land Bank’s work and requires a healthy amount of homeownership in the areas we serve.
East Cleveland – Cleveland’s first suburb – was designed to offer a relaxed, scenic alternative to downtown living while also providing easy access to University Circle and the city’s core.
On vacant lots in East Cleveland, a few hundred yards from the bustle of University Circle, signs posted by the Cuyahoga Land Bank warn trespassers away.
In the City of East Cleveland, just east of Cleveland’s thriving University Circle area, lies one of the hardest-hit neighborhoods by the foreclosure crisis.
