In 1905, the 17-story Rockefeller Building on the corner of Superior Avenue and West 6th Street was completed, dwarfing the nearby Perry-Payne Building. Note the smaller commercial buildings standing between the Perry-Payne and Rockefeller buildings. The Scovill Block (formerly the Franklin House), which was adjacent to the Perry-Payne Building, was razed in 1938. Today, a parking lot exists at that site. The other two buildings—the Crittenden Building and the Johnson House—were razed in 1910 to make room for the construction of a Superior Avenue addition to the Rockefeller Building. | Source: 1905 Trade Extension Excursion - Cleveland Chamber of CommerceDownload Original File
