E. 61st St. and Quincy Ave. Orchard, Reimagining a More Sustainable Cleveland Project

Vue d'ensemble

Project team

Head: E. 61st St. and Quincy Ave. Orchard

Project description and goals

The project affords a group of families who have stuck through the thick and thin of one particular Cleveland neighborhood a chance at beautifying a piece of land with an orchard. The goals include developing greenspace within a neighborhood that is sparse of meditative places, as well as supplying fresh fruit for those without access to healthful foods.

About ReImagining a More Sustainable Cleveland:
Re-Imagining Greater Cleveland is a pragmatic, data driven strategy for the management and reuse of vacant properties in Cleveland and Cuyahoga County. The initiative builds on the work began in the 2007 Re-Imagining a More Sustainable Cleveland study, which was led by nonprofit community development organization Neighborhood Progress, Inc. (NPI) and Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative.
