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.

Glenville neighborhood is the best of all the neighborhoods in my opinion. I have lived in the area all of my life and there are many opportunities to get involved with. I also like the area because the location is excellent if you have to travel on the bus. I would like to see more job opportunities for the Glenville area so that the high school students can work and play a part in the development of of their respective area of interest.
