The Eco-fence

(© 2006 N. Bryson; Licensed to About, Inc.)
A mile and a half west of Tremont we come to our next stop at 3500 Lorain Ave near downtown and Ohio City. The location houses Cleveland’s first environmentally-sustainable building as well as office of the Cleveland Environmental Center. Here we find Steven Manka’s Eco-Fence which integrates function and form by framing the side of the building’s small parking lot and including solar panels, bird houses and vegetation making the fence pleasing to look at and ecologically friendly.
