Rooming Houses and Fruit Stands Next to Pope Building

Rooming Houses and Fruit Stands Next to Pope Building
These houses stood where the second half of the present-day Halle Building would be built several years after the original, whose west wall appears at left. These rooming houses had fruit stands set up in front along the sidewalk. The sign at right indicated that the side alley led to Hotels Wyandot and Tavistock. Before upper Euclid Avenue became a major retail hub in the 1910s, it was a transitional fringe area that had a mix of single-family and rooming houses and apartment hotels. | Date: 1908 | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Photograph Collection
