Englewood, a northern suburb of Dayton, is a city in Montgomery County, Ohio, United States. The population was 12,235 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Dayton Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Geography

Englewood is located on Dayton's North Main Street (OH-48) (although Englewood uses its own street numbering system, rather than use a continuation of Dayton's) on the west bank of the Stillwater River. The east-west highways U.S. Highway 40 and Interstate 70 also go through Englewood, with the interchange at OH-48 being a major exit on the expressway, with many motels and restaurants located there. The overpass at OH-48 has been revamped to resemble a gateway to welcome visitors. Other major arteries include Wenger Road, Union Boulevard, Taywood Road, and Old Salem Road. The city is mostly middle to upper-middle class.

Recent Developments and Enhancements

Over the past few years, Englewood has seen a dramatic increase in new economic development. The Hoke Road interchange at Interstate 70 and the Main Street corridor are just a few of the hot spots. The old Kroger grocery at Union Blvd. and Wenger Road was demolished and rebuilt brand new along with a new gas station and shopping plaza. The new government center on National Road was also completed. A Walmart was constructed on Hoke Road with two accompanying retail centers (one of which is called Hoke Plaza), a Bob Evans restaurant, and a Sonic drive-in. New traffic lights mounted on antique-styled mast arm poles are being placed at intersections all over the city. Plans are also underway for the North Clayton Village in nearby Clayton, Ohio.

History

After the Great Dayton Flood of 1913, the Miami Conservancy District constructed a dry dam on the Stillwater River in Englewood. US-40 is routed over this dam, giving a scenic view of Englewood MetroPark upstream and Aullwood Audubon Center downstream. At one time, Englewood was called Harrisburg. This can clearly be noticed on a mural on the side of a shopping plaza in the downtown area.
