about the project

Southeast Side Stories is a project that was started in October 2024 in collaboration with NuPoint Community Development Corporation (formerly Union Miles Development Corporation) in Cleveland, Ohio. In 2026, the project continued with support from Cleveland VOTES Democracy Collective.

Southeast Side Stories documents the history of Union-Miles, Mt. Pleasant, Lee-Harvard, and Lee-Seville (and the neighborhoods in between), highlighting the joys and struggles of living in community together.
