Located on the southside of Euclid Avenue, between East 1st and East 3rd Streets, the building was erected 1874, a year within a decade that witnessed the transformation of the south side of Public Square and lower Euclid Avenue from a residential to commercial neighborhood. This 1905 photograph shows the Cushing Building (center) at a time when it was occupied by the George H. Bowman Co., a china and glassware store. To the viewer's left is the Cobb Building, which was built at the same time as the Cushing Building. The two buildings shared a common party wall, until the Cobb Building was razed in 1940. To the viewer's right is a portion of the Euclid Avenue Block, which was torn down in 1915 to make room for the new May Company Building. | Creator: Cleveland Public LibraryDownload Original File
