The Cuyahoga Valley is a complex and diverse landscape. It encompasses very distinct places: a national park, one of the nation's "edge cities", a major concentration of industrial production, a popular entertainment district, an international port, vibrant neighborhoods, and other uses.

Separating these distinctive natural and man-made features are transition points, or nodes, which warrant special attention. They help define the Valley's structure and are potential gateways to experience the Valley and promote a sense of place.

It is also the place where the neighborhoods on both sides of the River can touch the water, and many will come to see where the nation's industrial might was fueled and forged. more...
