A skilled care facility is in full operation at 8757 Brecksville Road, just north of the square and adjacent to the Western Reserve Bank building. The facility is called The Oaks of Brecksville. The center of Brecksville has a fresh new look as a result of the transformation of the Brecksville Shopping Center into Brecksville Town Center. The Giant Eagle store in the Center closed its doors but has been replaced by a “new generation” of Marc’s stores.

Although the 100-acre Veterans Administration Hospital at Miller and Brecksville Roads is now closed, City Council and the Administration have planned for this closing and it is anticipated that future revenues from redevelopment there will exceed past revenue.

Brecksville Is a Solid Business Partner The City is proud that Moody’s Investors Services has once again awarded our City a bond rating of AAA. This is the highest gradation of credit worthiness, which attests to our strong economic health and prudent fiscal management. This is the 25th consecutive year that the City of Brecksville has not raised taxes. The last time taxes were raised was to build our library, which remains one of our most prized community treasures. This is just the “foreword” to the Brecksville story. Our Economic Development Director Frank LaRose and I are waiting to personally welcome and assist you. Just call 440-526-4351. In Brecksville, the climate for business is stronger than ever.
