    Cleveland Metroparks was honored with the first-ever Impact Award at the Cleveland Neighborhood Progress 2016 Vibrant City Awards, during a luncheon meeting today at the Cleveland Masonic Auditorium. The Vibrant City Awards recognize Cleveland's neighborhoods and organizations supporting progress, place-making and urban revitalization in Cleveland.



    The Impact Award honors organizations for their efforts in Cleveland's neighborhoods.

With connections at the core of Cleveland Metroparks vision, the Park District is dedicated to increasing urban greenspace in Downtown Cleveland and surrounding communities.



    "The amount of progress here in Cleveland is truly remarkable, and Cleveland Metroparks is honored to have been recognized for their passion and dedication to the community," said Brian Zimmerman, Cleveland Metroparks CEO.
