Shaker Heights, Planned residential suburb in Cleveland, United States
The city occupies 6.32 square miles of land with nine distinct neighborhoods named after original elementary schools, containing several artificial lakes and green spaces.
Railroad entrepreneurs Oris and Mantis van Sweringen developed this area in 1905 on former Shaker colony land, leading to its incorporation as a village in 1911.
The Shaker Historical Society preserves local heritage through exhibits of furniture and artifacts from the North Union Shaker settlement established in 1822.
A rapid transit system connects residents directly to downtown Cleveland, operating continuously since 1920 to facilitate daily commutes and urban accessibility.
Seventy-five percent of the city's buildings form the Shaker Village Historic District, protected by specific building codes to maintain architectural authenticity.
