During the mid 1980s, Eric Blaushild partnered with the owners of Qua-Guice Pontiac and Zalud Oldsmobile to develop plans for an auto mall at the southwest corner of Chagrin Boulevard and Lee Road. The site was to be called Shaker Heights Town Centre Auto Dealers. The project was delayed multiple times and eventually scrapped, in part due to state auto franchising laws that prohibit the construction of a car dealership within ten miles of another dealership of the same make. Eric Blaushild moved forward with plans to build on the site, and had new designs prepared. Construction began in June, 1988. | Source: Shaker Heights Public Library, Local History CollectionDownload Original File
