Clevelands’s waterfront highway - is this the best solution for Erie?
Maxwell J. Hentosh, a young architectural and urban designer from Cleveland, authored a compelling op-ed in the Sunday, August 21, 2020 Erie Times-News, “PennDOT’s bayfront plan fails to prioritize people.”
Hentosh, who grew up in Cleveland, warns that PennDOT’s “Erie Bayfront Central Corridor Project” is similar to Cleveland’s massive waterfront roadway (above.)
Hentosh, a member of the team of graduate students who visited Erie last October and did not challenge PennDOT’s vision, is now collaborating with CIVITAS and CONNECT URBAN ERIE to propose a “human centered” design for Erie’s waterfront - a Bayfront Boulevard.
