The second site of the Health Museum

In 1946, the Health Museum sold the Allen Mansion that had served as the first site of the museum and acquired the larger Treadway Mansion just down the street at 8917 Euclid Avenue to serve as the new home of the museum. It appears that the funds to purchase the new location came from James Bohannon, then president of the American Brewing company, who made the donation to honor his mother Sallie Carolyn Mundy Bohannon who died at a young age. A plaque honoring his mother appears to have been placed in the new Health Museum building. | Date: 1961 | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Photograph Collection
