Cleveland Launches Study to Determine Future of Burke Lakefront Airport and Potential Redevelopment

The City of Cleveland, in partnership with the North Coast Waterfront Development Corporation, has initiated a comprehensive study to evaluate the future of Burke Lakefront Airport. The study aims to assess the airport's current economic impact and its role as a key transportation asset for the region. Simultaneously, it will explore alternative uses for the 450-acre prime waterfront property, including redevelopment into public parks, housing, or other community spaces. The ultimate goal is to determine the 'highest and best use' of the land based on data-driven analysis. This will provide city leaders with clear recommendations on whether to maintain the airport or pursue a new vision for the downtown lakefront.
