Learn the rich history of Cleveland's Westside streets.

See other dates and locations for this program on our events calendar.

Have you ever wondered how some Westside Cleveland streets got their names? Were they named in honor of prominent people? Perhaps they were named after the landowner who sold their farm to city development?

Join us on this tour to find out which road names have significance to Riverside Cemetery's residents. Presented by Jamie Lynne Owens (author of Cleveland's Riverside Cemetery) and Maria P. Moldovan.

Book signings and sales will follow the event.

About the branch

The Richmond Heights Branch is the only branch in the Cuyahoga County Public Library system co-located with a school. Opened in August 2021, the branch is connected to the Richmond Heights Upper School, but has its own dedicated entrance, allowing the general public to access the branch seven days a week.

This branch is a Student Success Center and Greater Cleveland Food Bank Kids Cafe location.
