worthington schools: Riverlea is pronounced River - lee - 03/04/09 03:06 AM
Usually.
Most people pronounce Riverlea, River-lee but occasionally you hear someone pronounce it "River-lee -a."   I went to a function on the Worthington Green once and a Riverlea resident and dignitary at the event pronounced his village's name as River-lee-a.

Riverlea is an enclave....  I think.  I learned the word enclave from Wikipedia, an enclave is surrounded by another city.  Riverlea is surrounded on three sides by the City of Worthington... the west side is on the Olentangy River.  The village's website says Riverlea is a non- charter village.
Their website gives these … (0 comments)
