About this Location

Babb Run Bird and Wildlife Sanctuary runs from the corner of Sackett Avenue and 27th Street south to the Cuyahoga River at the Slip Bank and is open for exploring by the public and has a spring-fed stream running its full length and was part of the original George Babb Farm. As early as 1912 the stream was stocked with trout by the Goodyear Sportsman’s Club who used the valley as a wildlife haven. Today it has no trout but it still has that natural refreshing atmosphere in its historic surroundings. There is also an entrance to the Babb Run Park at the west end of Valley View Drive with a wooded drive clear through to Sackett Avenue.
