Forest Hill spans Cleveland Heights and East Cleveland, and is bordered to the north by Glynn Road, the south by Mayfield Road, by Lee Boulevard to the west and North Taylor Road to the east. The Forest Hill neighborhood grew from John D. Rockefeller, Jr.s vision of a community that would endure for generations. In the early 1930s he built 81 distinctive French Norman-style homes that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In the late 1940s and 50s others were drawn to Forest Hill to build comfortable colonial and ranch homes. Today, Forest Hill is a rich tapestry of people, homes and gardens a testimony to the quality upon which Rockefeller insisted.

Rockefeller instituted protective deed restrictions to ensure the ongoing quality and architectural integrity of the Forest Hill community. These covenants require all homes to meet exceptional design and construction standards. Forest Hill Home Owners, a volunteer non-profit organization, is empowered to administer these deed provisions. FHHO also serves as a vehicle to represent the interests and concerns of Forest Hill residents to the cities of Cleveland Heights and East Cleveland and among neighbors.

Distinctive architecture, generous lot sizes, wide curving streets, underground utilities and a true spirit of community all combine to make Forest Hill a wonderful neighborhood. But theres more. Forest Hill is at the heart of northeast Ohio, conveniently located to numerous amenities, including:
