  • CMA Landscape Master Plan
    THE CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART LANDSCAPE MASTER PLAN DECEMBER 2018 LANDSCAPE MASTER PLAN The rehabilitation of the Cleveland Museum of Art’s grounds requires the creativity, collaboration, and commitment of many talents, with contributions from the design team, project stakeholders, and the grounds’ existing and intended users. Throughout the planning process, all have agreed, without question, that the Fine Arts Garden is at once a work of landscape art, a treasured Cleveland landmark, and an indispensable community asset. But the landscape is also a complex organism—one that requires the balance of public use with consistency and harmony of expression. We also understand that a successful modern public space must provide more than mere ceremonial or psychological benefits. To satisfy the CMA’s strategic planning goals and to fulfill the expectations of contemporary users, the museum grounds should also accommodate as varied a mix of activities as possible. We see our charge as remaining faithful to the spirit of the gardens’ original aesthetic intentions while simultaneously magnifying the rehabilitation, ecological health, activation, and accessibility of the grounds, together with critical comprehensive maintenance. This plan is intended to be both practical and aspirational, a great forward thrust for the benefit of all the people forever. 0' 50' 100' 200' 2 The Cleveland Museum of Art Landscape Master Plan 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS CMA Landscape Master Plan Committee Consultants William Griswold Director and President Sasaki Heather Lemonedes

  • University Neighborhood Plan Summary
    UNIVERSITY NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN SUMMARY Description. The University neighborhood encompasses two of Cleveland’s most well known places, University Circle and Little Italy. University Circle came into being in the 1880s with the donation of 63 acres of wooded parkland to the City by financier Jeptha Wade, one of the creators of Western Union. “Little Italy.” was established in the late 1800s by Italian immigrants who settled there for lucrative employment in the nearby marble works. The dense housing in Little Italy represents the largest residential area in the neighborhood. There are a few other isolated streets of residential and student housing located in the neighborhood. The majority of the land in the neighborhood is either institutional use or park land. Assets. University is home to many institutions that are not only assets to the neighborhood but the region as well. Among the assets in the neighborhood are: • educational institutions like Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Cleveland Institute of Music, the Cleveland Music School Settlement, John Hay High School and the Arts Magnet School • health institutions the University Hospitals and the Veterans Hospital • cultural attractions such as the Cleveland Museum of Art, Severance Hall, the Western Reserve Historical Society, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, the Children’s Museum and the Cleveland Botanical Gardens • natural features such as Doan Brook and the hillside to the “Heights” • open spaces such as Wade Park, Ambler Park and Lakeview Cemetery

  • The Metrohealth System Report of the President and Ceo to the Board of Trustees Regular Meeting of October 26, 2016
    THE METROHEALTH SYSTEM REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT AND CEO TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES REGULAR MEETING OF OCTOBER 26, 2016 Executive As always, there’s been a lot of activity within our halls since we last met. Aside from providing great patient care both at our main campus and satellite locations, I’m so very happy to share with you the news that MetroHealth is the proud recipient of a $2.6 million grant from the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living and Rehabilitation Research. This grant designates MetroHealth as a Spinal Cord Injury Model System and a national leader in spinal cord injury care and rehabilitation - only 14 centers nationwide have received this funding. For the ninth consecutive year, the Comprehensive Stroke Center at MetroHealth has earned the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association’s Get With The Guidelines®- Stroke Gold Plus Achievement Award for performance and quality, with its second consecutive Target: Stroke Honor Roll Elite Plus recognition. It’s no surprise that the entire country is plagued by an opiate addiction epidemic. The impact this terrible disease has had on the lives of the victims’ families, friends, and the community in general is astronomical. The death rate is alarming: seven people died from drug overdoses in Cuyahoga County in one day alone, prompting the county's medical examiner to issue a public health warning. Fifty-two drug overdose deaths occurred in August, the highest number in any given month for the county. MetroHealth’s emergency room physician and medical director of Project DAWN, a community-based overdose education and naloxone distribution program, is being featured in a CNN five-part series on the epidemic.

The film offers an inside view of how patients, families and staff each cope with illness, uncertainty and resolutions. The documentary captures in vivid detail what it means for millions of Americans to live without health insurance. Medical staff tries to keep up with the scores of incoming patients while attempting to deliver thoughtful and compassionate care to all. From a young girl with an advanced case of strep throat, to a carpet layer with chronic back pain, to the teenage victim of gun violence, you will glimpse an urban emergency department in action. As a counterpoint, after the viewing, an esteemed panel of healthcare professionals and community leaders will discuss the delivery of health care today and how the MetroHealth Emergency Department effectively handles an average of 300 patients daily. Peter Nicks, Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker and the director and cinematographer of The Waiting Room, will also be present to add insight and answer questions.
