Water and flooding have long been a concern in the Lomond and Sussex neighborhoods; history provides clues as to why. As it meanders through the neighborhoods, Lomond Boulevard roughly follows the path of a stream bed that ran through the area when it was farmland. Land speculators who purchased these properties created East View Village, which encompassed portions of what today are the Onaway, Moreland, Lomond, and Sussex neighborhoods. By 1914 the Onaway and northern Moreland areas had been incorporated into the Village of Shaker Heights. The Lomond and Sussex neighborhoods became part of Shaker in 1919. All of this activity required planning and engineering work, and in Shaker it coincided with significant advances in how wastewater was conveyed and treated. 60 SUMMER 2022 | WWW.SHAKER.LIFE
