RESIDENT STORIES

RETURN TO TOP

Jessica & Angelo Trivisonno

We moved to Ohio City because it’s close to downtown and it’s easy to walk and bike to everywhere we want to go. We have stayed because of our wonderful neighbors who are clearly invested in their community, homes and businesses.

Katherine Thorpe

I chose to live here because of my father. He had moved into Riverview and needed my support. I stayed after he died because my children grew to love the area and the traditions we had created.

Jerry Elias Peña

Ohio City is special to me, my wife was born and raised on West 37th Street and as a teenager my family and I lived above the Borincana market on Fulton Avenue. I have many great memories in Ohio City and continue to make memories here, no other place I want to live in the city.

Patrick Kearns

My wife and I lived overseas for 15 years before moving back to the US and taking a job in Cleveland in 2016. We were looking for a neighborhood that was diverse, eclectic and accessible. Ohio City has all of these qualities and it keeps getting better. On top of this we both work in Ohio City meaning that we can walk to work and come home for lunch.

Bea Delpapa

We’re city people and raised our kids in a very vibrant, ethnically/economically diverse neighborhood in Denver. After moving several times for Chuck’s (my husband) job, we spent 17 years in rural OH. When we decided to downsize, we knew we needed to move back to the city where more services would be easily available to us. OH City was our choice because of it’s vibrancy, diversity, and walkability. I can walk to the bank, the grocery store, West Side Market (of course), my hair stylist, my doctor’s office, and even the library.

Srinivas Merugu

I moved here when I was young and single in the early 2000s because it was beautiful, walkable, close to downtown and some of my favorite restaurants (The Flying Fig, Johnny Mango) at the time. Now, 13 years later, I still choose to live here for many of the same reasons – it’s even more beautiful, there are even more places to walk to and my favorite restaurants and breweries are still here. My personal life has changed quite a bit and the wonderful thing about Ohio City is that it still holds so many charms for me as a middle-aged guy with a family!
