Cleveland Heights officially became a city in 1921. Cleveland Heights Patch is observing that 90th anniversary by compiling 90 photos to create an album of the city's past and present. We'll run the feature for 90 days, one photo at a time.
Today's photo, from 1959, promoted the 75th anniversary of Dean's Dairy, which delivered milk and other products for about 90 years.
Dean's Dairy was started Orville A. Dean. In 1886, he built a large farmhouse at 3151 Mayfield Road, where the Homewood Residence at Rockefeller Gardens stands. In 1920, the dairy was moved to 3211 Mayfield Road, where it was located until it closed in the 1970s. - source: clevelandmemory.org, clevelandhistorical.org

Why does the map to the right of this article say "Fairmount" at the intersection of Mayfield and Lee?

What was (is?) the name of the dairy on Warrensville Center Road, just north of Mayfield? I recall it was there for many decades, too.

Eric, this is Afi Scruggs and I'm posting the photos for this series.
I know the dairy you mentioned because I remember when it was closed. Stay posted for an answer on Monday.

Believe it or not, there was once a time when Dean Dairy's horse-drawn delivery wagons traveled Cleveland Heights's streets, delivering milk and other dairy products to customers' homes. A CH resident shares her memories of these here:
