I focus on emerging correlations between galaxy cluster properties with their supercluster environment. Cluster formation is now beginning to be well-understood in the context of gravitational instability theory. Numerical simulations have matured to the point that it is possible to model the formation of a cluster, including gas-dynamical effects, with some completeness of included physics. One large cluster redshift survey is nearly complete, and has yielded interesting results on how cluster properties depend upon environment. Additional surveys are being done and will be done in connection with cluster catalogs being produced based on both optical and X-ray data. I will present recent results on cluster alignment, substructure, and the presence of so-called cooling flows correlate with the surrounding large-scale structure. In addition, I will present results that suggest strong evolution in cluster morphology over the last Gy.
