The neighborhood of Glenville lies between six and eight miles from downtown Cleveland. A short trip on I-90 takes commuters from their houses with porches on quiet, leafy streets to the city's center. For rest and relaxation, head to the Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve right on Lake Erie with its winding, easy-to-walk trails, bird meadows, and wildflowers. While in the park, take in the views at the scenic Doan Brook Outflow and the Intercity Yacht Club. Locals also delight in Gordon Park, with its wild landscape in the middle of a big city. Don’t leave out the nearby Russian Cultural Garden, the Cleveland Cultural Gardens, and the Rockefeller Park Greenhouse. For those into pop culture, fans of the Superman character flock to the boyhood home of its creator, Jerry Siegel.

I have lived in the Glenville neighborhood most of my life. I have seen a lot of changes as far as businesses and individuals who succeeded by going to college and sharing their experiences with the youth and residents of the community. I too have been sharing what I have to offer and I see a big difference in the community as a whole. One thing I can say is that the Glenville neighborhood is a family oriented neighborhood. The neighbors are friendly and the location is great . The homes are lived in, and the ones that are not, have been torned down for the safety of all.
