Having three National Register Districts in its boundaries, with architecture from the 1870s to the 1930s, it is a treasure trove of adaptive re-use. Happening after the Warehouse District, it was next-up on building a new neighborhood from the 1990s to today. TAKE A HIKE® is a program of Historic Gateway Neighborhood Corporation with generous support from Ohio & Erie Canalway and Downtown Cleveland Alliance. TAKE A HIKE® offers 14 unique in-person neighborhood guided tours from June through September.
