Brush Ave. Property Development Public Survey

May 29, 2026

Voice your opinion on what should be built at the former site of the Brush Building (E. 261st and Brush Ave.)

The E. 261st Street and Brush Avenue site survey is a series of open-ended introductory questions to kick off the conversation. Your feedback is critical to guiding how the site is developed in the future. This survey will be open until Friday, June 12th, 2026. We are asking for your assistance to share this survey with family, friends, and neighbors who live around the site to get as much community feedback as possible.


Your voice matters, and this is your chance to make a meaningful impact on our community's development.


Site Details

The E. 261st Street and Brush Avenue site is approximately 1.25 acres situated north of Brush Avenue, south of Bluestone Elementary school between E. 260th Street and E. 262nd Street. The former Brush Building properties were acquired by the City in 2020 and 2025 with the Brush Building and parking lot being demolished in 2025. E. 261st Street is a dead end street that has had a number of dumping complaints over the years. Below is an image of the E. 261st Street and Brush Avenue site with the site outlined in yellow. Today, the site is open greenspace with primary access from Brush Avenue. The property is zoned in the U8 Office District.

Building Resilient Shorelines: Join Us for a Nature-Based Strategies Workshop Living along Lake Erie offers stunning views and vibrant community life, but lakefront property owners and coastal communities also face distinct challenges from shoreline erosion and storm damage to habitat loss. To address these challenges, the City of Euclid is excited to host an interactive community workshop: Building Resilient Strategies: A Workshop for Lake Erie Property Owners and Communities . Supported by a grant from the National Fish & Wildlife Foundation’s National Coastal Resilience Fund (NCRF) , this event is designed to help local residents explore sustainable, eco-friendly approaches to shoreline protection. What Are Nature-Based Strategies (NbS)? Nature-based strategies (NbS) use natural materials and ecological design to help stabilize coastlines. Unlike traditional hard infrastructure, NbS measures offer dynamic benefits, including: Erosion Control & Shoreline Stabilization: Protecting property against wave action and weather. Storm Damage Protection: Absorbing impact during severe weather events. Water Quality Improvement: Filtering runoff naturally before it reaches Lake Erie. Habitat Creation: Supporting local wildlife and aquatic ecosystems. Whether you are looking to protect your own shoreline or interested in coastal management for the broader community, this workshop will guide you through taking ideas from initial concept to full implementation. Interactive Design Session for Property Owners Are you a lakefront property owner? Bring photographs or drawings of YOUR shoreline! During the workshop, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in an interactive design process to discuss tailored solutions and potential approaches for their specific property. Event Details Date: Thursday, September 10, 2026 Time: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM Location: Lakefront Community Center (1 Bliss Ln, Euclid, OH 44123) RSVP: To RSVP for this event CLICK HERE !
