Rising to the occasion: Van Aken District developers seek more skyline with proposed 17-story apartment complex Thomas Jewell, cleveland.com
SHAKER HEIGHTS, Ohio There may be much more in the way of transformational development going up in the Van Aken District as many as 17 stories worth of new market-rate apartments, according to preliminary plans.
That would be about 190 feet in height for the slightly taller of two buildings connected by bridges in a dual-tower design proposed for the Farnsleigh Road parking lot, just west of the Ohio Savings Bank branch.
The smaller structure would be 16 floors reaching 163 feet just about a foot lower than the historic 12-story Tower East office high-rise, currently the tallest building in Shaker Heights, which is situated on the opposite end of the Van Aken District.
