Forums are held at Noble Road Presbyterian Church, 2780 Noble Road. Parking is available in the church's lot across Noble Road at Navahoe Road. A barrier free entry is available through the Kirkwood Road side entry door. A chair lift is available from this entrance level to the upper level sanctuary meeting space.

​Noble Neighbors submit our forum questions to the candidates and issue spokespeople two weeks in advance of their forum. It is our posture to offer voters a forum that is most informative, allowing each voter to make decisions based on candidates' thoughtful, prepared and targeted responses. Audience members will be asked to agree to a social contract for the evening - to listen quietly and respectfully and to allow all other audience members to do the same. Audience members will not be allowed to vocalize or make any other attention garnering noise or gesture either in support or in opposition to a candidate. Audience members will not be permitted to have private conversations with other audience members during the forum or to distract other audience members in any way.

Last Week - Sept. 21    Join us!

Noble Gardeners' Market
Saturdays, July 20 - Sept 21, 2019

For three Saturdays - August 25, September 1 and 8, 2018, we launched a test market to see how much interest there is for neighbors to buy and sell home grown fruit, vegetables and flowers to each other. You can see more about the concept and our experience by clicking here.

The response was tremendous! People came from all over the city and across city boundaries to be part of this hyper-local market. Participants were overwhelmingly people who want to buy from neighbors. If you grow food and flowers in your backyard or in community gardens, plan your 2019 garden so you have excess to sell! We need grower/sellers!

FutureHeights is leading this project to propose plans for the revitalization of the business districts along Noble Road. Noble Neighbors is a partner in this project along with the City of Cleveland Heights, the City of East Cleveland, NOAH (Northeast Ohio Alliance for Hope) and NELA Park. Together we are considering visual and functional points of unity for four business districts: The Triangle District (Noble, Warrensville Center and Mayfield Roads), Noble-Monticello, Noble-Nela, and Noble-Euclid.

This project is OUR project - it belongs to the people who live and work along Noble Road. While we are using consultants to help us with the technical aspect of creating this proposal, It is OUR input that is driving this plan. EVERY voice is critical to help us shape the proposal into a plan that will work for us as a neighborhood. Please do review the presentations that have been made so far and do attend the next public meeting.

So what happens next? The Noble Road Corridor Planning Project has been given to the cities of Cleveland Heights and East Cleveland. Each city has already been considering what portions of the project can be engaged immediately. Look for placemaking installations.

Both cities are already considering how the larger parts of the project can be implemented. Of course, that involves bigger issues - financing, property ownership, business recruitment and development, and more. It also means that there's still room for revision in the plan. The ball is in our court to keep this project moving! Keep your voice in it!

You guys in Noble have such a powerful neighborhood group. I wish we had that on our side of town.

Just want you to know I sold almost everything at my sale this weekend. The weekend event was also a great time to re-connect with neighbors on the street!!

It is wonderful to see how this event has grown since its inception.  Other places have SID’s and events for the commercial areas, but only in Noble is it a true neighborhood and community-building event.  Congratulations!
