I spent yesterday at my kid’s doubleheader in North Baltimore, Ohio. The history of North Baltimore is similar to Chagrin Falls in a number of ways; it was founded in the 1870s, occupies 2.5 square miles, has a population of 3,369, and is centered on a North Main Street that looks a lot like ours. And check out these crosswalks!
Good street design isn’t just for big cities or tourist destinations. Cars are just as deadly in small towns, and everyone outside a vehicle deserves the basic protections that have been shown to work.
