Date: April 25th, 2018 1:16 PM Author: disrespectful international law enforcement agency In 1905, business partners and brothers Oris Paxton and Mantis James Van Sweringen began purchasing the settlement’s original 1,366 acres to develop a scenic residential suburb. They based their plans on the popular Garden City movement.
Their development – named Shaker Village and incorporated in 1912 – preserved the natural landscape and provided residents with easy access to greater Cleveland on two Rapid transit lines.
They implemented strict development guidelines for setbacks, building heights and architectural styles, and planted spacious and lush tree lawns. Planners created an intentional hierarchy of streets – many with names chosen from an old English postal directory – to limit traffic in residential neighborhoods for a quiet, idyllic ambiance. Engineers dammed Doan Brook to form Marshall and Green Lakes, as well as some of the choicest properties in Shaker Village.
Rapid growth continued along with construction on block after block of architecturally unique and distinguished homes. Each home was designed within one of three sanctioned styles – English, French or Colonial. These houses became an enduring asset for the City of Shaker Heights, officially established in 1931. |

Date: April 25th, 2018 1:22 PM Author: disrespectful international law enforcement agency In the March 1963 edition of Cosmopolitan, a feature article entitled “The Good Life in Shaker Heights” declared the spotlighted residential community to be the closest thing to a utopian society as could be found anywhere in the U.S. Using the most recent Bureau of the Census figures as evidence, the author portrayed the suburb as both an idyllic society and the new demographic face of prosperity in the United States.

Advanced placement and honors classes are overwhelmingly white. Regular college preparatory classes are overwhelmingly black.
White students in Yale and Dartmouth sweatshirts walk the hallways with whites to their honors classes and black students in Howard and Spelman sweatshirts walk with blacks to their classes.
In the cafeteria, with only a few exceptions, blacks sit with blacks and whites with whites. They are generally segregated by sex as well. There is no pushing, no shoving, rarely a cross word or rolling of eyes, just peaceful, mutual, voluntary segregation. |
