The department store continued to grow in the 1920s. To make room for additional departments in its ten-story main building on Euclid and Huron, Halle Bros. Co. turned to Walker & Weeks to design a new building to run from Huron to Prospect. Opened in 1927, it housed the new Men's Store as well as home furnishings. In the 1950s, as downtown parking became a growing concern, Halle's consolidated these departments back into the main store and converted the Huron-Prospect Building into a parking garage. Today it remains so, and its blade sign is the lone outdoor vestige of the Old English font logo that was otherwise retired when Marshall Field's of Chicago took over the Cleveland retailer in 1970. | Creator: J.
