Improvements to the Chagrin-Lee District have already attracted<br />
new businesses to the area. But the <strong>City</strong> has much<br />
more in store. BY DIANA SIMEON<br />
Four years ago, when Evelyn Lewis and her husband, Vereese, were looking for a<br />
<strong>Shaker</strong> <strong>Heights</strong> location for their New Millennium Salon, they fell in love with<br />
the south side <strong>of</strong> Chagrin Boulevard, across from <strong>Shaker</strong> Town Center.<br />
“We loved the traditional but newly renovated look <strong>of</strong> the buildings,” recalls<br />
Evelyn. “The parking was great and the area was so secure.” They moved in, and<br />
by last year, the upscale hair-and-nail salon had become so popular, it was bursting<br />
at the seams.<br />
“We decided it would be a great time to expand,” says Evelyn.<br />
The couple finished the space next door and, last April, opened New Millennium<br />
Suites, an elegant l<strong>of</strong>t-like space where the salon’s stylists are able to work<br />
with clients in private rooms.<br />
