For over a century the Cleveland Foundation has addressed the needs of Greater Cleveland not only through targeted grants but also by the leadership and guidance that the foundation provides to the community.  In 2023, the Cleveland Foundation moved its headquarters to the Midtown Corridor and into a new building which welcomes both neighborhood and at large involvement. The speakers will discuss the history and purpose of the foundation, the impetus that led to the new home and location of the foundation, the design and construction of the new structure as well as future plans for development in the area adjacent to the foundation along Euclid Avenue and to the north along East 66th Street. A tour of the building will follow the talk.
Directions:  
The foundation is easily accessible by public transportation or automobile.  Free parking is available in the covered & gated lot off E. 66th St.at the corner of E. 66th St. & Chester Ave.  Attendees may press the button on the intercom to communicate with the front desk, where the gate can be opened remotely. When exiting the lot, the gate will open automatically via sensor.  Enter the building through the main entrance of the south side of the building on East 66th St. near Euclid Ave. and check in with the receptionist.
