Old Schools, New Homes in North Olmsted | Cleveland News
Description
North Olmsted is transforming three shuttered elementary schools—Pine, Chestnut, and Maple—into new housing neighborhoods, aiming to tackle the town’s growing need for diverse living options. Bought for $3.33 million, the schools are still in use but will be vacated by 2027 when a new school opens. The city is already engaging local communities and developers, learning from past projects that residential development is the best fit—not commercial. Plans aim for approval within a year, with demolition to follow once ownership transfers, ensuring vacant lots don’t linger and instead become vibrant, green community spaces.
