Last year I wrote this post about the proposed Eco Village Cottages  at W. 58th and Pear. It's an exciting project, and this past week it moved closer to fruition and occupancy with a ground breaking ceremony. These homes will meet Leeds standards for energy efficiency, are all of the same design (I think there are five homes). They are part of the Cleveland Land Trust which means they will remain affordable throughout their lifetime. (The Land Trust sells homes at market value but the buyers buy at about 80% of market value). You can read about the Land Trust here.   Green City Blue Lake has an informative post on the Cottages. Here is an excerpt: "....The homes are universally designed, life-cycle homes that allow aging in place. They will include accessibility features such as ramped... 09/20/2008

You know how sometimes you walk through a neighborhood and the energy is almost palpable? I swear you can feel the vibrancy of Detroit Shoreway when you are there. This Thursday we have a Twilight Tour in D/S and you might want to take the opportunity to try out new eateries, shop some galleries, take a zen moment at the Lake shore, and view some open houses, all in the same evening. What could be better? About 17,000 people call this neighborhood home. Cleveland is divided up into CDC neighborhoods, and this one's borders (depending on who you talk to) go from Lorain Avenue to W. 50th to W. 117th and to the Lake. Now some of that area is  claimed by Edgewater Cudell (closer to W. 117th and Clifton) and Ohio City (closer to W. 50th and Franklin.)  But we aren't here to worry about borde... 07/21/2008

What if I told you that you could buy a new home, wind up paying less than $600 a year on natural gas fuel costs, be within walking distance to the Rapid Transit? And buy this home for less than $130,000? You'd say I was not of sound mind? Well you'd be wrong, this time anyway lol.  There is a new green housing development getting ready to break ground (maybe as early as late August) between W. 58th and Pear Avenue. This is exciting news folks. One Design's ECCO House was selected to do the project. This is also the site of Cleveland's Eco Village which has always had as it's goal Transit Oriented Development (TOD) near a West Cleveland transit stop. The Eco Village Townhomes are luxurious and consist of about 20 town homes. They have been there long enough to have gone through some res... 07/06/2007

                This fire was at an apartment building on West 80th St in Cleveland, Ohio. The building was equipped with working smoke detectors. While working as a fireman on this fire I personnaly can vouch for the importance of a smoke detector program for every city. When we pulled up the alarms could be heard from the outside. Because of the noise that was produced the four residents were up hanging out of various windows. We rescued the residents with the use of various ground ladders.  This is another reason why shutting down fire houses in the city of Cleveland, Ohio should not be tolerated by the citizens. You the citizens of Cleveland need to call the Mayors hotline to make your voice heard! Just ask the four residents of this apartment building if fireman are needed! To sced... 06/27/2007
