University Circle - Little Italy

Little Italy (known locally as "Murray Hill" or "The Hill") is an ethnic enclave that serves as the historic center of Cleveland's Italian American community. It is located from E. 119th to E. 125th streets on Murray Hill and Mayfield roads, situated at the city limits' eastern edge, along a long, moderately sloping grade that ascends in elevation approximately 300 feet. It is bounded to the east and south by suburban Cleveland Heights, to the northeast by Lakeview Cemetery, and to the west by CSX Railroad tracks, which separates it from the rest of University Circle.
