This photo, taken one year before the Rose Building construction got underway in the block on the far right, shows how the area was not yet a central downtown location. Rose first operated a two-story commercial block on the corner parcel (just outside this photo) for a few years before building the large office building that would bear his name. Note the "livery" sign in the distance on the right. This was John Corlett's business. Corlett also owned the property that Rose bought for the Rose Building soon after this photo was taken. | Date: 1895 | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Photograph CollectionDownload Original File
