The Blaushild Chevrolet-Peugeot Dealership at the southwest corner of Chagrin Boulevard and Lee Road was the first project in the City of Shaker Heights' plan to revitalize Shaker Towne Centre. The land was bought and cleared by the City, and the structure financed by the auto agency. Eric Blaushild employed Eric Landers, a Connecticut architect, to design the $3 million dealership. Having decided to steer away from constructing a typical boxy dealer showroom, the exterior was designed to resemble a turn of the century English train station. The interior included a mezzanine overlooking the main sales floor. | Source: Shaker Heights Public Library, Local History CollectionDownload Original File
