Fifth-floor Rec Room - Smoking Allowed
The fifth floor recreation room within the Timken Tank. It is rumored that Frank Seiberling, the Akron tire tycoon, was among those who were treated within the facility. One evening while enjoying a game of poker he accidentally ashed his cigarette onto his own jacket, igniting the garment. Thankfully, Timken and Cunningham had taken preventative measures and installed automatic showers on every floor.
