MetroHealth Behavioral Health Hospital Opens Its Doors This Week | |
On October 8, 2022, the MetroHealth Cleveland Heights Behavioral Health Hospital will open its doors to adults and seniors who need inpatient care for behavioral health. Its adolescent unit will open next June.
The 112-bed hospital on the campus of the MetroHealth Cleveland Heights Medical Center at 10 Severance Circle is designed for short-term stays for people with mood disorders, addiction, and other behavioral health needs.
The $42 million project added a three-story, 79,000-square-foot building and renovated 21,000 square feet of space in the existing facility, and is believed to be the largest investment in behavioral health in Northeast Ohio in at least 30 years.

✓ Draft Severance Town Center Vision Statement | |
|
The Cleveland Heights Board of Control is asking for feedback on a newly drafted Vision Statement for Severance Town Center.
Background
Severance Town Center is located in the heart of Cleveland Heights. Its history, first as a private estate, then as a ground-breaking regional mall, and most recently as a struggling retail center, is reflective of the history of the City itself. This status quo is no longer acceptable, and its future is of the utmost importance to the City. The City is committed to working diligently toward a vision for the redevelopment and re-imagination of Severance Town Center.
Vision
As the heart of Cleveland Heights, Severance Town Center demands redevelopment and re-imagination to assure dynamic, cutting-edge development, spaces, and uses that:
- Create an Intentional City Center with a Mix of Civic, Green, and Other Uses
- Are Transformational and Not Incremental
- Are Economically and Environmentally Sustainable over the Long-Term
- Pump Energy and Activity out into the City’s Neighborhoods
- Are Consistent with the Values of Cleveland Heights, but also Forward Looking
- Are Unique and Reflective of the Diversity of Cleveland Heights
- Create a Sense of Place Attractive to Residents, Visitors, Shoppers, Business and Property Owners, and Others
- Include a Resilient Group of Uses and Users
- Will be Enjoyed and Accessible to all Ages and Abilities
- Are Based Upon Innovative Zoning that Allows Wide-Ranging, Strategically Appropriate Possibilities
Please provide any feedback you have or ask questions at Severance Town Center Vision Statement.

Mobius/RoxArts Launch Party Tonight! | |
RoxArts began as a partnership of the Roxboro Elementary School PTA and school leadership under the name “Roxboro Enrichment Arts Program” or REAP.
Its mission has grown to support not only the students in the original school but ALL the Cleveland Heights-University Heights City School District elementary and middle schools.
RoxArts has officially changed its name to Mobius to be more inclusive of all the CH-UH K-8 students it serves.
According to their new website, MobiusCHUH.org,
“Our name comes from the Mobius strip, which is a continuous, single-sided surface with no boundaries. It’s our hope we eliminate boundaries and inspire possibilities for all, which drives our mission: We create opportunities for Cleveland Heights-University Heights K-8 students to engage in creative and critical thinking that extends and enriches curriculum.”
Mobius is hosting a launch party on Saturday, October 1, from 7:00-10:00 pm, at the Coventry Peace Campus, 2843 Washington Boulevard. See below for details.
