The only thing I can add about Lakewood Park that nobody else seems to have mentioned is that the squirrels in this park are more varied than a United Nations meeting.
Whereas most of the CLE area has the common brown squirrel doing its goofy thing. Lakewood Park rolls up it's multicultural sleeves and offers black, red, and the occasional balding squirrel. The balding ones are probably from mange, but I like to think they're the non-conformists fighting against established squirrel social norms.
So what's the big deal if there are different colored squirrels? Well, I used to live a block away and never saw them around. The other parks in Lakewood don't have them either.
Is Lakwood Park the Ellis Island of Squirreldom? Are these the tired and poor, and the huddled squirrel masses gathering in Lakewood Park?
I don't know, but I sure as shit like to think so.
Oh, and there's a nice bandstand, swimming pool, and of course a great view of downtown Cleveland to enjoy if you're not into the whole squirrel thing.
