Grandview High School students have a snowball fight in the playground area at the south end of the football field in this 1960s photo. The playground, with the sandbox and "monkey bars" shown here, was used by elementary students from the Edison school before it was relocated to provide more space for the athletic fields.
The Society is in the midst of planning our triennial Tour of Homes for Sunday, October 5, 2025. We are looking for local homeowners to showcase their properties that reflect the rich history and architecture of Grandview Heights and Marble Cliff.
We are also seeking sponsors at various levels, as their support is essential to the success of the tour.
If you are interested in being a tour home or sponsor, please contact the Tour of Homes Coordinator at ghmctourhomes@gmail.com.
Join us in celebrating the charm of our community! We look forward to showcasing your home.
The 100+ Year-Old Home marker program has ended for 2024. Thank you to all homeowners who participated. The program will be active again in 2025. New applications will be taken after July 1, with markers delivered mid-August. The 2025 display period will be September and October. For homeowners who received markers in 2024, it is time to remove those markers and save them for display again during September and October 2025.

The Society has published a revised edition of the 1989 publication entitled Final Salute. Of the 600 plus veterans that the Grandview Heights High School Alumni Association has identified thus far, 62 lost their lives in the line of duty. This second edition of Final Salute builds upon the wonderful work of the original authors.
Copies of Final Salute are available for purchase here.
