BIRDTOWN (also known as the Bird’s Nest) is a nationally registered historical district in the Cleveland streetcar suburb of Lakewood, Ohio. In 1891 the National Carbon Company (now NeoGraph Solutions) occupied the corner of Madison Avenue and West 117th Street at the Cleveland-Lakewood border. The company acquired 155 acres to the west of the factory to Halstead Avenue and developed over 400 residential parcels to accommodate factory employees and their families. The names 'Bird's Nest' and 'Birdtown' were derived from several streets named for birds believed to be indigenous to the area including Robin, Plover, Lark, and Thrush among others.
