This photograph shows East 6th Street blocked at Superior due to the demolition of the Hollenden Hotel. This building was being destroyed to make way for the new Hollenden House, opening two years later in 1965. The Hollenden is surrounded by a lacy network of steel safety scaffolding which protects workmen demolishing the structure as well as passersby in the streets below. The intricate scaffolding was designed and supplied by Patent Scaffolding Company of Cleveland. The Harris Wrecking Company of Cleveland was in charge of the demolition of the hotel. | Creator: Dudley Brumbach | Date: June 17, 1963 | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Photograph CollectionDownload Original File
