| Title | High Bridge Glens - 1885 |
| Description | High Bridge Glens Park operated from the late 1870s until 1912, when construction of the Northern Ohio Traction and Light dam flooded the scenery. The park featured a dining room, dance hall pavilion, and a roller coaster. Paths along the rocky cliffs led to Fern Cave, Mirror Lake, a suspension bridge across the Cuyahoga River, and toy houses and bridges for children. It was a popular destination for residents of northeast Ohio, who traveled by interurban railroad to Cuyahoga Falls. |
