Stadium Square Historic District, Historic district in Cleveland Heights, United States.
Stadium Square Historic District is a residential neighborhood in Cleveland Heights featuring Tudor Revival buildings constructed primarily between 1926 and the late 1920s. The area extends along Superior Park Drive and contains apartments, retail spaces, and mixed-use buildings arranged in a cohesive layout.
The district took its name from a proposed 14,000-seat football stadium announced in 1927 that never came to fruition. Although the stadium was never built, the ambitious project sparked enough interest to fuel rapid neighborhood development during that period.
The Tudor Revival architecture shapes the area with carefully crafted brick patterns, decorative stone details, and ironwork that reflect the tastes of 1920s residents. Walking through the streets, you notice how these design choices created a cohesive neighborhood identity.
The neighborhood is located between South Taylor and South Compton Roads and can be explored on foot. The streets and sidewalks allow for a pleasant walk through the various residential blocks and commercial storefronts.
Essex Hall and Morley Hall are two notable apartment complexes that arose during the height of the district's rapid development in the late 1920s. These substantial residential buildings reveal how ambitious the neighborhood plans were even as the stadium proposal faded.
