Disappearing cities and villages of the Buckeye State: Brook Park, Ohio

It all started here.

Belt Magazine, 1/5/2015

The bus and the train are definitely cheaper than driving but there’s also time lost walking or driving to the station, waiting for the train, and walking to the final destination. If someone has the income to do so, it might actually take less time to drive alone to an exurb than to take the bus home to Euclid or the Rapid to Brook Park.
