Historic Cedar-Fairmount built by the Rockefellers
Long known as the "Gateway to Cleveland Heights," Cedar-Fairmount sits atop a hill dotted with perennials and a mixture of local cafes, bookshops, restaurants, and small businesses. The neighborhood was registered as a historic district in 1976, considering its past and the landmarks in town like the century-old Alcazar Hotel. In the 1890s, Cleveland Heights began rapidly expanding due to a major population boom. The Cedar-Fairmount community of Cleveland Heights started growing after 1906 when John D. Rockefeller permitted the city to lay a streetcar line on his land, connecting Cedar Road and Coventry Road. This made transportation to the area much easier, and the district flourished with rapid housing and commercial development. By the 1920s, Cedar-Fairmount was full of storefronts and apartments. Its ever-growing residential area was designed with both large and smaller lots on side streets to invite a mix of people into the neighborhood. Geoffrey Hoffman, a 10-year Realtor with Howard Hanna Realty, says, "Cedar-Fairmount runs the whole spectrum, there are college students, working professionals, doctors, and professors, as well as large and small families who live here. A little bit of everybody, in a way.”
