The Flats at East Bank

The Flats is a mixed-use industrial, entertainment, and increasingly residential area of the Cuyahoga Valley neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, USA. The name reflects its low-lying topography on the banks of the Cuyahoga River.

Problem:

Improvements near the area where two retail buildings, restaurants, and bars are being constructed have begun as part of phase 2 of the East Side Flats project. When the ADS Slot Drain products were delivered to the site, the developers of the massive downtown waterfront project along the Cuyahoga River rejected them, citing, "we want ACO."

ACO Solution:

• ACO Drain®
• PowerDrain® S300K
• Longitudinal Ductile Iron Grate

The project required a high-capacity, long-lasting system with an easily detachable grate for maintenance as needed. PowerDrain S300K met all of the specifications. The ADA compliant longitudinal grate, with PowerLok, gives the ideal solution to a heavy duty location where some pedestrian access may be required.
