Home to the Burning River Community Garden, a scenic overlook, grassy hillside, and significant Cleveland history, Superior Hill is a recently refreshed public space along connecting the Warehouse District with Settlers Landing and the Cuyahoga River along W Superior Ave.
This site used to be the eastern end of the Superior Viaduct - the 1878 bridge that once connected the east and west sides of the Cuyahoga River. While horse-drawn carriages, streetcars, automobiles, and pedestrians no longer crossed the river on the Viaduct when the Detroit-Superior Bridge replaced it, this historic remnant can now serve as a nod to the past while providing a place for today's Clevelanders to enjoy as Superior Hill Park.
Looking West along the former Superior Viaduct - Today’s Superior Hill is located in the bottom center/right of this image.
Through new public art and murals, outdoor furniture, landscaping, painting, and more, the Historic Warehouse District Development Corporation (HWDDC) has made significant recent improvements to this space, along with over 100 community volunteer hours. As a result, this is a dynamic public space that celebrates the neighborhood's history and creates a welcoming outdoor amenity.
