Detailed Project Description Grand River's Waterfront Entertainment District ("the District") is home to two Northeast Ohio seafood institutions: Pickle Bill's and Brennan's Fish House, but much of the surrounding area has deteriorated. There is also a railroad track that was reactivated in 2016 by a short line railroad, the Grand River Railway ("GRRY") to serve the Morton Salt mine that actually runs directly through the Pickle Bill's parking area, creating a dangerous situation for negative interaction between the train, parked cars, and patrons entering and exiting the restaurant.
