Project description and goals
The project proposes a pocket park made by the community for the community. The park will include landscaping and structural design that will afford the neighborhood a much needed place of relaxation and beauty, as well as provide a venue for organized gatherings. Other goals include a concerted effort for intergenerational involvement in the development, maintenance, and use of the pocket park. In fact, over 80% of the residents along E. 87th have committed to the project’s development in some form.
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.
