A potentially huge new development for University Circle - from cleveland.com
University Circle proposal could add 700-plus apartments near Chester and East 107th
A team of local developers hopes to build more than 700 apartments and nearly 1,700 parking spaces on the northwestern rim of University Circle, in a project that could remake one entrance to the city's educational, medical and arts district.
Details about that project, called University Circle City Center or UC3, started trickling out Wednesday evening during a community meeting at the Cleveland Public Library's Martin Luther King Jr. branch on Stokes Boulevard. The 1970s library sits in the middle of what could be a 5-plus-acre development site, lining both sides of Stokes and spanning properties north and south of Chester Avenue.
Such an investment would bring hundreds of new households to the city's second-largest employment hub, where builders see near-unceasing rental demand from medical residents, young workers and aging Baby Boomers seeking culture and convenience. The project also would flip a prime curve along Chester from low-slung public buildings to private uses, with neighborhood-focused retail on the lower floors and apartments upstairs.
