Sara Brennan Comprehensive Design Studio __Spring 2014 (ONGOING) This thesis project proposes that the expansive network of open space available in Cleveland becomes a new type of Experimental Urban National Forest. Incubators,

laboratories and research facilities become a fundamental part of the city land-scape, allowing for field exploration of the evolving interrelationship between city

and the dynamic natural systems in which it sits.

Sandy was just like the last straw thatdidnt even allow you to fool yourselfinto thinking it was OK to stay.

- Oakwood Beach resident

"The heartache of losing my home, the heartache of losing my memories, the blood and sweat and tears that I put into this home, is going to be healed by seeing trees and nature come back to that spot right there. And that's going to make me feel better."

- Oakwood Beach resident

MIDLAND BEACH

Oakwood Beach was fortunate to get a deal with the state. They made the Governor promise that there would be no development if they left - that the land would become a park. Here in Midland Beach we had to deal with the Mayor, who wouldnt make that promise. For us, there was no deal.
