In 1922, Charles Winning Bates (1879-1929), a Wheeling, West Virginia architect, who trained in Chicago under Daniel Burnham, was selected to design three new schools for Shaker Heights. In 1924, a fourth was added after the Shaker Heights Board of Education decided to build a new and larger elementary school near the old East View elementary school building on Lee Road, just south of South Moreland (Van Aken) Boulevard. The new school was originally called Lee-Moreland School and later Moreland Elementary School. This photo, taken in 1909, shows Architect Bates at his principal office in Wheeling. He also had an office in Cleveland in the Marshall Building, then located on the northwest quadrant of Public Square. | Source: WikipediaDownload Original File
