In Lakewood, three publicly accessible road rights-of-way provide scenic Lake Erie views. Starting on the west, they are Webb Road and Summit Avenue both of which intersect with Clifton Boulevard (U.S. routes 6 and 20 and State Route 2, respectively). The third, Cliff Drive, is accessible from Nicholson Avenue which also intersects Clifton Boulevard.

Driving 1.6 miles east of Summit Avenue, Cliff Drive parallels the Lake Erie shore atop a steep bluff. The drive dead-ends just west of Wilbert Road and extends east to Nicholson Avenue.

The north side of Cliff Drive is open to the lake and lined with a chain-link fence. Sporadic deciduous trees in danger of succumbing to erosion line the top of the bluff. West of Cliff Drive’s western terminus, the road right-of way is maintained by the city of Lakewood as a small mowed-grass green space. Looking east, this area allows for views of downtown Cleveland. There are no amenities on site.
