While the north and east sides of the new Engineers Bank Building (now known as the Standard Building) which fronted on major streets were ornate, featuring terra cotta facades, architectural ornaments, many windows, a skylight and a rooftop garden, the south and west sides were windowless expanses of uninterrupted yellow brick, providing a very unappealing view of the building especially from the south, as this 1926 photograph reveals. Only a clock and the Engineers Bank sign adorn that south wall in this photo. | Date: 1926 | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Digital photograph collectionDownload Original File
