History
 The area of Glenville was originally populated mainly by farmers. Later as Glenville Village, the area became a summer resort for wealthy Clevelanders. The area was once known as a horseracing center when the Glenville Race Track was open. Glenville Village was incorporated into the City of Cleveland in 1905. The last mayor of Glenville Village was Frederick Goff who founded the Cleveland Foundation. As industrialization continued, the area became more middle class. Eventually parts of the neighborhood fell into disrepair. Today the community is organized to redevelop and rebuild the neighborhood.
