City Will Celebrate MLK’s “Beloved Community” Shaker resident and videographer Peter Gould (pictured) is inviting residents to speak in a short film he’s creating in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, birthday. The film, to be screened at the City’s annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Day Celebration, will focus on King’s vision of his “Beloved Community,” a place where unity, community service and genuine intergroup and interpersonal living are achieved. Participants will be asked their perspective on King’s goal, how much of his vision has been achieved here in Shaker Heights, and where we should go from here. Residents from all walks of life in Shaker are invited to respond. If you would like to participate, please visit www.shakeronline.com for time and locations. The free celebration, produced by the Human Relations Commission, is at 7 p.m., Jan. 22 at the Shaker Middle School. Roads and Railways Shaker Towne Centre Streetscaping Update Construction for the narrowing of Chagrin Boulevard at Shaker Towne Centre and the insertion of a road connecting Chagrin and Van Aken boulevards (to be known as Center Street) should begin in the spring. The project will go out to bid this fall. During the redesign, which is part of the $33-million Shaker Towne Centre revital- ization program, Chagrin Boulevard will be reconfigured to three lanes and will feature head-in on-street parking on the south side. Plans for a revitalized shopping center include an array of new stores and an updated façade. The pedestrian-friendly design, which includes new trees, decorative streetlights, benches, functional public art and plantings, will have a four-seasons theme and incorporate a gristmill sculpture created by Stephen Manka (see story page 10). The projected completion date is December 2004. Sussex Courts Streetscaping Completed After a summer of roadwork, the streetscaping adjacent to the Sussex Courts develop- ment on Chagrin Boulevard is receiving its finishing touches: Victorian style streetlamps, brick paving, trees, benches and on-street parking. The traffic lights have been relocated to facilitate flow at the intersection and new road markings are in place. Snow Plow Program Outlined The City’s fleet of snow plows and salt spreaders is well prepared for winter weather.

Origination: Cole, Joseph E. Extent: 882 linear feet Physical Location: Abstract: After the Cleveland Press newspaper ceased publication on June 17, 1982. Joseph E. Cole, its publisher, donated the "morgue" to Cleveland State University. Representing the archived editorial library, sometimes referred to as a "newspaper morgue," topics focus on the news coverage of northeastern Ohio, with national and international news stories holding a secondary level of importance.The Cleveland Press photograph collection is composed of an archive of over one million photographs. Unit ID: PH2000.000PRE Language(s) of the Materials: English History of The Cleveland Press The Cleveland Press, founded by Edward W. Scripps, began as the Penny Press on 2 Nov. 1878. A small, 4-page afternoon daily, the paper continued to prosper. Shortened to the Press in 1884, and finally the Cleveland Press in 1889, by 1903 the Press was Cleveland's leading daily newspaper. As it entered the 1920s, the Press neared 200,000 in circulation. Louis B. Seltzer became the 12th editor of the Press in 1928, and under his 38-year stewardship the Press became one of the country's most influential newspapers. Seltzer readjusted its original working-class bias into a less controversial neighborhood orientation, stressing personal contacts and promoting the slogan "The Newspaper That Serves Its Readers." In the postwar period the Press continued its public service campaigns and remained an unrivaled force in Ohio politics.

  • CMA Landscape Master Plan

    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

Washington District of Columbia PHOTOGRAPHS WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA Historic American Engineering Record National Park Service Department of the Interior Washington, DC 20013-7127 HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD ARLINGTON MEMORIAL BRIDGE HAER No. DC-7 Location: Adjacent to the base of the Lincoln Memorial, Washington, D.C., spanning the Potomac River to Arlington Cemetery, Arlington, VA. UTM: 18/321680/4306600 Quad.: Washington West Date of Construction: Designed 1929, Completed 1932 Architects: McKim, Mead and White, New York, New York; William Mitchell Kendall, Designer Engineer: John L. Nagle, W.J. Douglas, Consulting Engineer, Joseph P. 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.
