“After she lost her lease at the Coventry PEACE Campus in Cleveland Heights earlier this year, Amy Rosenbluth of the nonprofit youth writing center Lake Erie Ink looked from east to west to find another venue. It wasn’t easy. Most of the spaces she found were either inaccessible (they had steps or didn’t have a first floor bathroom) or they didn’t work for her budget. Recently, she found a storefront on Taylor Road in Cleveland Heights after months of scouring the market.
“It kind of felt like we got smacked in the head with (moving),” said Rosenbluth, who started LEI fourteen years ago with programming director Cynthia Larsen and hosted hundreds of programs a year in the former school building. “It was like Covid. It was kind of like, ‘OK, you’re going to have to do it this way.’”
