The Scofield Building

The Scofield Building
After moving to the southeast side of Cleveland in 1898, Levi Scofield designed and then in 1901-1902 built the Scofield Building, which still stands on the southwest corner of Euclid Avenue and East Ninth Street. Levi's architectural firm, which by this time his sons William and Sherman had joined, was located for years in this pressed red brick 14-story building. The Scofield Building dwarfed the 8-story Hickox Building (1890), located directly across Euclid Avenue from it, and, until construction of the Rockefeller Building was completed in 1905, it was the second tallest building in Cleveland--second only to the Guardian Bank Building at East 6th and Euclid. This photo of the building was taken in 1910. | Creator: Cleveland Public Library, Digital Photograph Collection
