CLEVELAND, Ohio — You can easily forget what the Glenville neighborhood used to be. Like Hough, Fairfax or Collinwood, it’s rich with East Side history. Even now if you stroll the wrong streets, its history will stare you in the eyes.

One side street does that better than others do, because if you turn off St. Clair Avenue and onto Parkwood Drive, you’ll bump into Kimberly Avenue. There, you’ll find a slice of history that you won’t expect to see.
