West Creek, a 9-mile meandering tributary of the Cuyahoga River that drains a large portion of Parma and parts of several neighboring suburbs, has received a lot of attention from conservationists over the years.

One section has even been incorporated into Cleveland Metroparks, the string of natural areas that ring Cuyahoga County.

Now a more than mile-long section of West Creek in Brooklyn Heights that was squeezed and rerouted decades ago to make way for Interstate 480 and nearby commercial development is due for a dramatic makeover.
