  • The Collinwood School Fire of 1908
    H. F. Wendell Company, Leipsic, Ohio Mourning Card, 1902 ca. 1920 Gilt printing on white card stock; 4 ¼ x 6 ½ inches The mourning, or memorial, card reprinted on the cover was used by the funeral industry from 1902 to around 1920. Mourning cards became popular during the Victorian era and were often kept as reminders of lost friends or family members. Cards for children were typically printed on white cardboard, whereas cards for older people were printed on black cardboard. In reprinting this original card, the Library made no changes except for the wording in the center box, which typically would have contained the name of the deceased along with his or her birth and death dates. Reproduced courtesy of the Museum of Funeral Customs, Springfield, Illinois, www.funeralmuseum.org The Last Lesson Cleveland Plain Dealer, 6 March 1908 In Loving Remembrance: The Collinwood School Fire of 1908 An exhibit prepared by the History & Geography Department, Cleveland Public Library The Collinwood School Fire remains the worst school building fire in U.S. history. This is perhaps due to the heightened consciousness regarding fire safety following the disaster, but more concretely to the stricter building codes, better construction materials and lifesaving devices which came into use after the fire. A century-old myth holds that the students at Collinwood died because they were trapped behind doors that opened inward. This was quickly proven to be false, but the myth gained traction and is repeated to this day. It was the narrowness of the exit stairs and inner vestibule doorway, combined with the panic of the children as they rushed to escape, that led to their entrapment.

  • The Mcgregor Story
    The Story Chapter 1 The McGregor Story TThe McGregor story starts in 1877 when Amasa Stone, the legendary capitalist and preeminent Cleveland philanthropist, and his wife, Julia, built and endowed one of the first private organizations in Cleveland specifically for the care of seniors — the Home for Aged Women, later to be renamed the Amasa Stone House, on what is now East 46th Street and Cedar Avenue. After training as a carpenter and building contractor in his native Massachusetts and moving to Cleveland in 1850, Amasa turned his considerable ambition to transportation. He built the Lake Shore Railroad, which ran between Erie, Pennsylvania and Cleveland as part of the New York Central. During the post-Civil War industrial boom, he found himself among America’s elite railroad builders. He also worked with his brother-in- law, William Howe, in designing a truss bridge to sustain heavy loads of rail cargo over short spans, like small gullies and ravines. Over the years Amasa became one of Cleveland’s leading business figures, eventually moving to a mansion on Euclid Avenue — dubbed “Millionaires Row” by the press — near a 3 Y R A R B I L Y T I S R E V I N U E T A T S D Tank wagons such as this, built N A L E V by the Standard Oil Company E L C , S in Cleveland in 1911, were N O I T C E standard equipment throughout L L O C the world in the petroleum L A I C E P industry.

  • The Collinwood School Fire Tragedy and Its Impact on Fire Safety
    Collinwood’s Call to Action: The Collinwood School Fire Tragedy and Its Impact on Fire Safety Ehren Collins Historical Paper Junior Division Word Count: 2498 On March 4, 1908, a massive fire erupted in an elementary school in Collinwood, Ohio, killing 172 children and three adults. Though the children attended a relatively new school, their building and its inadequate fire protection contributed significantly to the loss of innocent lives. This horrific tragedy in a small Ohio town awoke the entire nation to the inadequacy of fire safety practices in schools, sparking a call to action to standardize fire safety measures and impel city and state governments to implement safety features lacking in Ohio schools and schools across the country. From this tragedy, the entire nation took notice, setting in motion an era of redevelopment of fire safety measures, still credited to the Collinwood disaster today. Collinwood was a small town established in 1874 just east of Cleveland. The town began as a single railroad stop chosen by the Lakeshore and Michigan Southern Railway Company given its central location between Buffalo and Toledo. The establishment of the Collinwood Rail Yards attracted immigrants seeking jobs in the railroad industry. Collinwood grew into a diverse ethnic community, housing large Italian, Irish, and Slovenian populations (“South Collinwood” 1). By 1899, Collinwood had its own school system, newspaper, six churches, plentiful business, and even an amusement park. In 1901, a small, four story school was built on Collamer Street in North Collinwood. Lake View School was updated in 1907, adding four rooms to the rear of the building (“In Loving Remembrance” 1-2) (See Appendix 1).

  • Ambler Heights Historic District Cuyahoga County, OH
    USDI/NPS Registration Form 1 Ambler Heights Historic District Cuyahoga County, OH NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES CONTINUATION SHEET ================================================================== SECTION 7 ================================================================== NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION The Ambler Heights Historic District is an early twentieth century suburban residential development of approximately 73 acres, platted in its current form in 1900. Development began about 1903 and was largely completed by 1927. The District is located mostly in the southwest corner of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, an inner-ring suburb of Cleveland; a small portion of the District is located within the boundaries of the City of Cleveland. It is an example of the successful marketing of “garden city” living to the wealthy during the first stage of the suburbanization of Cleveland. It consists today of 67 original, single-family, architect-designed private homes, one original home which has been converted to use by a retirement community (but continues to be a contributing resource) and 13 non-contributing homes. The original homes and the District are well-preserved and have experienced relatively little alteration since their construction; they therefore may be said to have integrity in terms of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. The District is located approximately five miles east of downtown Cleveland. It is bounded by Cedar Glen Parkway (north), South Overlook Road (east), North Park Boulevard (south) and Ambleside Road and Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard (west). It is located on the rise of a gradual hill leading from the City of Cleveland at its lower elevation to the various “Heights” suburbs (including Cleveland Heights and Shaker Heights) at its higher elevations; this ledge of land forms the western limits of the Portage escarpment of the Allegheny Mountains.

We like to say that we specialize in being general, that the variety of our articles is endless, on subjects as esoteric as the dying languages of Mayan Indians and as down-to-earth as forecasting the weather, as serious as a new definition of death and as whimsical as a history of dogs in church. But there is one area in which we do specialize - we are a regional journal, and in particular, a Cleveland journal. We have allowed ourselves to be partial to articles about the city by Cleveland writers, and those writers have not let us down. This collection gathers together, for the first time, some of our favorite articles on Cleveland from The Gamut's first six years.
