Commerce comes to Lower Euclid Avenue.

Commerce comes to Lower Euclid Avenue.
In this 1873 photograph, taken from the southeast quadrant of Public Square (then called Monumental Park), the Euclid Avenue Block (erected in that year) is the four-story commerical building on the right, visible through the trees. In the middle of the photograph is St. Paul Episcopal Church, then located on the corner of Euclid Avenue and Sheriff (East 4th) Street. Henry Cushing's home on the southside of Euclid Avenue is barely visible to the viewer's left of the Euclid Avenue Block. That home, and all of the others still standing on the south side of Euclid Avenue between East 1st and East 3rd Streets, were torn down and replaced by commerical buildings in the period 1873-1875. | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Digital Photograph Collection
