Tremont
Perched on a ridge above the Flats, Tremont overlooks the industrial Cuyahoga
River valley and Downtown. This old steel town neighborhood, known for its historic
churches, is undergoing a vibrant revitalization.
It is gaining the reputation as a "hot spot" for hip,
urban night life, dining and the visual arts with galleries and restaurants within walking
distance. Many businesses and homes, more than a century old, are undergoing restoration.
There also is new home construction with scenic valley views.
Settled in 1818 by New Englanders Seth Branch and Martin Kellogg, Tremont today is a
multicultural and multiracial community. It is home to Slovenian, Greek, Russian, Hispanic
and other ethnicities, and is attracting newly relocated young urban professionals and
artists.
The Tremont website is a "work in progress." Updated
