[162] Nortonwood Demolished 2019 and (M-1865)Frances Mary Smith(1843-1920) By 1959 some estates were already past their prime when the planners of Interstate 90 working in the ODOT District 12[522] headquarters would decide to follow the same natural ridge Line that the wealthy owners and their architects had themselves once coveted to gain a panoramic view over the valley of east branch of the Chagrin River.
It was this combination of open fields and horse pastures that skirted just north of Chagrin River watershed, the higher peak of Little Mountain and the cities of Wait Hill, Kirtland, Kirtland Hills but was still south enough of the nearby dense properties in the cities of Wickliffe, Willoughby, and Mentor that made this route so attractive to those freeway planners.
