CEDAR - FAIRMOUNT Cleveland Heights' First Shopping Center The Cedar Fairmount business district is known as the Gateway to Cleveland Heights. In the early 1900s, real estate developers turned this area into the first planned neighborhood shopping district in the Heights. Their design for a miniature English village led to the completion of the Tudor-style Heights Center Building in 1918. The Alcazar, a Cleveland Heights Landmark, is one of the oldest buildings in the area and was originally constructed as an apartment hotel in 1923. The recently renovated building offers Senior Independent Living apartments; short term, month-to-month leasing of apartments; and five bed and breakfast apartments. Dining Out Cedar Fairmount boasts several award-winning restaurants, including The Mad Greek, Aladdin's Eatery and Nighttown. There are also many places to stop for a quick snack, such as Bruegger's Bagels, Osiyo Tea House and Starbucks Coffee. Zoss the Swiss Baker will draw you to his shop as he fills the air with the tantalizing aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries. For those with refined tastes, a stop at La Gelateria is a must; their European gelato is nothing short of pure bliss. And, for a fun-filled evening, stop in to Jillian's for a game of billiards, or visit The Fairmount and enjoy a martini by the fireplace. Unique Shops, Important Services Shopping for that hard-to-find gift is made easy by taking a walk through this district.
