Members of the National Guard stand in formation outside the Central Armory, Cleveland's other nineteenth century armory building. Like Grays Armory, this building was constructed in 1893. In addition to its military functions, it hosted important public events, including serving as an event site at the city's 1896 centennial and as an exhibition hall for the 1909 Industrial Exposition. The building was razed in 1962 as part of the Erieview urban renewal project. Its former site is now occupied by the Anthony J. Celebrezze Federal Building. | Creator: Western Reserve Historical SocietyDownload Original File
