<*dv_1*>Mill Creek Falls - Cleveland Metroparks

Settlers established Newburgh Township in 1799 on the Indian trail that later became Broadway. Waterpower generated by Mill Creek's 45-foot waterfall gave Newburgh a distinct advantage over Cleveland. The early lumber and grain mills attracted both businesses and settlers. Newburgh Township was organized in 1820 around a village square now known as Miles Park. Cleveland Metroparks is building overlook decks at the Falls and a trail that connects to Garfield Park Reservation.
