YNDC is working on updating the Greater Glenwood Strategy to guide continued stabilization and revitalization in the neighborhoods connected by Glenwood Avenue. Stakeholder feedback from residents, business owners, visitors, and vital partners is critical for refining and prioritizing action plans that enhance neighborhood health, which includes addressing housing, safety, economic development, infrastructure and other key components. 

 

We’d like to hear from you and how you currently interact with the Glenwood Avenue corridor, whether it is to visit friends and family, explore Mill Creek Metroparks, or support a local business.
