It was an honor to represent RTA at the ribbon-cutting for the Flats East Bank project that relies on RTA to transport their visitors and their workers to this new world-class waterfront attraction. RTA also cut the ribbon on its new Lee/Van Aken Blue Line Rail Station in Shaker Heights. This modern, safe and ADA accessible station will better connect residents to all the region has to offer. Our hard work throughout the year did not go unnoticed. RTA received accolades by way of Metro Magazine’s Innovative Solutions Award in the area of Safety for taking an aggressive approach to increase operator safety and improving driving behavior and creating a safer experience for transit riders with the use of DriveCam. Speaking of hard work, it truly paid off when RTA Board Member Valerie J. McCall was elected Chair of the American Public Transportation Association. RTA is proud of this accomplishment. Not only does this bring positive attention to Greater Cleveland RTA, but this allows Chair McCall to help shape what the future of the industry will be. RTA is certainly the only transit system in the nation to have two APTA Chairs (past and present) serving on its Board of Trustees. Congratulations Valarie J. McCall and George Dixon!!! During the quarter, RTA received the Silver Commitment to Excellence from The Partnership for Excellence, recognizing the Authority's continued efforts toward obtaining the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.

    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

Strauss, Bascule Span Engineer Contractor: Forty contractors under the supervision of the Arlington Bridge Commission Present Owner: National Capital Region National Park Service Department of the Interior Present Use: Vehicular and pedestrian bridge Significance: As the final link in the chain of monuments which start at the Capitol building, the Arlington Memorial Bridge connects the Mall in Washington, D.C. with Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. Designed to connect, both physically and symbolically, the North and the South, this bridge, as designed in the Neoclassical style, complements the other monumental buildings in Washington such as the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial. Memorial Bridge was designed by William Mitchell Kendall while in the employ of McKim, Mead and White, a prominent architectural firm based in New York City. Although designed and built almost thirty years after the McMillan Commission had been disbanded, this structure reflects the original intention of the Commission which was to build a memorial bridge on this site which would join the North and South.

    Heritage of Books on Cleveland

    A L....--_----' Heritage of Books on Cleveland Cleveland Heritage Program A HERITAGE OF BOOKS: A Selected Bibliography of Books and Related Materials on Cleveland to be found at the Cleveland Public Library by Matthew F. Browarek CLEVELAND PUBLIC LIBRARY 1984 Cover photograph: Hiram House Station C 1920 Archives. Cleveland Public Library PREFACE The Cleveland Heritage Program was born out of the conviction that the city of Cleve­ land possesses unique qualities worth capturing in pictures and words. In designing the program, Professor Thomas Campbell of Cleveland State University and I were prompted less by a desire to evoke nostalgia than to retrieve fugitive material for the benefit of scholars whose work will help us to understand how and why our city is what it is. If the uses of history are to serve the present generation, then the Cleveland Heritage Program has done its work well. Funded primarily by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the program was carried on over a two-year period from 1981 to 1983. Important supple­ mentary grants were made by the Cleveland Foundation, the George Gund Foundation and Nathan L. Dauby Fund. Also, the Cleveland Heritage Program greatly benefited from the cooperation of the following institutions: the Cleveland Public Schools, the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland, the Greater Cleveland Growth Association, the Western Reserve Historical Society, Cuyahoga Community College, WVIZ-TV and the College of Urban Affairs of Cleveland State University. Under Professor Campbell and his many able assistants, diligent research recovered valuable artifacts, photographs and oral histories relating to several of Cleveland's neigh­ borhoods.
