Imagine 450 acres of prime lakefront in downtown Cleveland finally open for everyone—not just private pilots. That’s what’s at stake as city leaders push to close Burke Lakefront Airport and reclaim the shoreline for parks, trails, new neighborhoods, and public spaces. The airport loses nearly $1 million a year, while redeveloping the land could bring in $92 million annually. Other cities have transformed similar spaces into vibrant destinations. What would you want to see on Cleveland’s waterfront? Parks, housing, entertainment? This is a once-in-a-century chance to shape our city’s future—let’s not let it slip by. #News #Cleveland #Lakefront
