About University

Corners

University Corners, located between Cedar Road and Fairmount Boulevard, is a residential and commercial University Heights neighborhood with mid-century apartment blocks and a walkable retail strip. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Cedar Road corridor near South Taylor Road, where storefronts, patios, and steady foot traffic set a lively, everyday rhythm. The Cedar Lee Theatre, Tommy’s, and Phoenix Coffee anchor the area’s cultural and dining identity. Side streets shift to brick colonials and tidy duplexes with mature trees and short blocks. Cain Park’s summer stage and green lawns add an outdoor counterpoint to the shop-lined avenues. Transit lines along Cedar connect the corners to nearby Cleveland neighborhoods and University Circle.
