Make Cleveland Better – Alumnus King Hill Has a Few Ideas How

(Story courtesy of the Kent State Alumni Association at www.ksualumni.org.)

One Clevelander wants to build a harmonic highway near the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that would play music when it’s driven over. Others want a Cleveland kitchen incubator or a nude beach. This is all part of Kent State Alumni Association board member King Hill's, ‘83, new “Cleveland Ideas” project created by his Cleveland Internet company, DigiKnow.

“I was tired of the negativity that Cleveland receives and wanted to generate positive ideas for the city,” says Hill.

Hill hopes to generate many ideas that will make Cleveland and the region stronger in the future. Anyone can vote or add a new idea. The ideas with the top votes will be presented to business and community leaders at the end of the summer.
 
“I am quite surprised with the responses so far,” says Hill. “We have received a number of good ideas in all different categories that are pretty in depth.”

Nearly 300 ideas have been generated.  Get your “Cleveland Ideas” out there and watch your idea possibly become Cleveland’s new attraction.
