Boundaries[edit]

One cannot both say that Cleveland Park is bounded to the South by Woodley Road and that the National Cathedral is a landmark in the neighborhood as the Cathedral is entirely South of Woodley (though part of the National Cathedral School is North of Woodley).

I agree, especially since I do not think the neighborhood really extends to Wisconsin Avenue. I'm going to look into this, but my suspicion is that 34th St./Reno Rd. is a more appropriate western border. JHG 29 June 2005 03:41 (UTC)

Growing up I was always told Macomb was the border with Woodley Park; Tilden was the northern border. As for the neighborhood stretching west to Wisconsin, that's been debated as long as I can remember. A lot of my friends still said they lived in Cleveland Park. 66.9.126.26 22:17, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what the article means by Woodley and Klingle (just south of Macomb) being the southern boundary of the neighborhood, however, with the section of Klingle Road that passes under Connecticut now closed, I imagine visitors or newer Washingtonians might not understand the reference to Klingle Road. It would probably be more accurate to refer to the southern boundary as consisting of Klingle Valley and Woodley Road, right? Also, as for the western border... pretty sure it stretches to Wisconsin. Not sure how to source that, though. -Sam Samstein (talk) 02:21, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, here are some sources for the boundaries: The Cleveland Park Citizens Association's membership area map is at http://www.clevelandparkisus.org/maplinks.htm. The Cleveland Park Historical Society's map of the historic district is at http://www.clevelandparkdc.org/histdist.htm. Both groups put the western limit at Wisconsin Avenue. Perhaps permission could be obtained to include these maps in the article. There is a small commercial center on the west side of Wisconsin Avenue (extending a full block outside the mapped limits), at Macomb and Newark Streets, which is commonly referred to as being in Cleveland Park. This fact should be mentioned, if only as disambiguation. The historical district extends south to Klingle Valley and Woodley Road. I believe this conforms to common usage, since Klingle Valley is a barrier, a not-so-grand canyon between Cleveland Park and Woodley Park. However, the Citizens Association puts its southern limit at Cathedral Avenue and Woodley Road; I think this stretches the limits, creating (or continuing) a boundary dispute with the Woodley Park Community Association whose northern limit is Klingle Valley and Woodley Road, as per their map at http://www.wpcaonline.org/Who/ Historically, I believe the name was first applied to a single subdivison, about 1 block long, along Newark Street just east of 34th Street. When I dig up the sources for this fact I will post in the article with a reference. Solo Owl (talk) 16:02, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
