Printable Version (PDF) Cleveland Architects Database The Cleveland Architects Database was envisioned as a comprehensive listing of Cleveland’s rich history of buildings and the architects who designed them. It provides an extensive look at the output of buildings in the careers of Cleveland’s architects to help us further recognize and evaluate their bodies of work, whether well-known or unheralded. A resource for architects, historians, planners, students, and property owners, the Database is a product of the Landmarks Commission’s mandate to conduct a continuous survey of Cleveland’s architectural heritage. The Database covers the history of Cleveland’s built environment, primarily up to the 1940s. It is our intention to expand the Database to include more buildings and architects from the latter half of the twentieth century. And though the focus of the Database is on architects from Cleveland and the work they produced, more entries will be added for architects from elsewhere who designed significant buildings here. The Database went online in June of 2008, and it continues to be updated, corrected, and refined. It is not a finished document, but rather a work in progress that will continue to grow and evolve. We welcome documented additions and corrections. Award In 2014, the Cleveland Restoration Society recognized former Landmarks Commission Secretary Robert Keiser and the Cleveland Architects Database with a Cultural Resource Award at the 2014 Celebration of Preservation. Acknowledgments Robert Keiser, who conducted research for the Commission from 1983 to 2014, and architectural historian Craig Bobby are the primary contributors to its compilation, research, and editing. Additional credit belongs to those who have contributed information over the years or whose research from other projects was incorporated into the Database. Web Design, Database Design, and Application Design Maurice Ruelens, Cleveland City Planning Commission Searching the Database The online Database is the best method for searching if you are looking for a particular architect. If you are looking for a building name, an address, or other information, the Database is searchable using the Edit/Find (Ctrl-F) function in the downloadable PDF version.

  • Women's History Is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating in Communities
    Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook Prepared by The President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History “Just think of the ideas, the inventions, the social movements that have so dramatically altered our society. Now, many of those movements and ideas we can trace to our own founding, our founding documents: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And we can then follow those ideas as they move toward Seneca Falls, where 150 years ago, women struggled to articulate what their rights should be. From women’s struggle to gain the right to vote to gaining the access that we needed in the halls of academia, to pursuing the jobs and business opportunities we were qualified for, to competing on the field of sports, we have seen many breathtaking changes. Whether we know the names of the women who have done these acts because they stand in history, or we see them in the television or the newspaper coverage, we know that for everyone whose name we know there are countless women who are engaged every day in the ordinary, but remarkable, acts of citizenship.” —- Hillary Rodham Clinton, March 15, 1999 Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook prepared by the President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History Commission Co-Chairs: Ann Lewis and Beth Newburger Commission Members: Dr. Johnnetta B.

  • View of the Many Ways in Which the Ohio Move­ Ment Paralled the National Movement in Each of the Phases
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While tf.; most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

    Property Research Guide for Cleveland & Cuyahoga County Cleveland Public Library Prepared by the Center for Local & Global History Cleveland Public Library Revised May 08, 2017 Cleveland Public Library, Louis Stokes Wing Center for Local & Global History 525 Superior Avenue, N.E. Cleveland, Ohio 44114 Telephone: 216.623.2864 [email protected] cpl.org 1 Property Research Guide for Cleveland & Cuyahoga County Where to Start? The resources outlined in this guide can be used to conduct simple research, such as looking up an address in an old city directory, or more complex research, such as tracing the chain of ownership of a property, finding old photographs for a restoration project, locating previous owners, etc. Property researchers must first give some thought to what they want to know about their subject property. Are you looking for something very specific, such as the building permit for a house, or do you want to know “everything?” The next thing to consider is how much time you are willing to invest in your research. People often start with a simple question that leads to a comprehensive research project with many rewarding discoveries. If you are new to historical property research and would like expert guidance, please refer to the selection of books listed at the end of this guide. How is this Guide Organized? Resources in the Cleveland Public Library, Main Library, are listed first. They are organized by building (Louis Stokes Wing and Main Library Building), starting with the Center for Local & Global History. Many of the resources in this guide may require assistance from a knowledgeable staff person.

    Ohio House State and Local Government Committee The Honorable Scott Wiggam, Chairman Proponent Testimony on Senate Bill 30 Megan Wood, Ohio History Connection Director of Cultural Resources March 27, 2019 Chairman Wiggam and members of the Senate Government Oversight and Reform Committee: My name is Megan Wood and I am here on behalf of the Ohio History Connection in support of Senate Bill 30, co-sponsored by Senators Kunze and Williams. I would like to provide some context on the suffrage movement in Ohio and the efforts by organizations across the state to prepare to celebrate this centennial and ensure inclusivity. From the first days of the movement, long before 1848 and the Seneca Falls Women’s Rights Convention, Ohio and Ohioans led the nation in campaigning for equal rights and opportunities for women: 1828 Frances Wright becomes the first woman in the United States to speak in public, launching what would become an international speaking career in the Hamilton County (Ohio) courthouse. An abolitionist and woman's rights activist dubbed "The Red Harlot of Infidelity," Wright persisted despite harsh criticism and threats of physical violence. 1848 Less than 2 months after his participation in the Seneca Falls Convention, Frederick Douglass led the National Convention of Black Freemen in Cleveland, Ohio, which became the very first national convention to permit participation by women when a "Mrs. Sanford" was allowed to address the participants. 1850 Activists, including Betsy Mix Cowles, in Salem, Ohio host the Ohio Women's Convention, the first convention to be run and organized entirely by women. 1851 Sojourner Truth delivers her "Ain't I a Woman?" speech at the Ohio Women's Rights Convention in Akron.

(Continued from p. 427). CHAPTER V. ADVANCE TO JALALABAD. THE hospital remained at Dakka until March 25th, 1879, when it was relieved by a field hospital of the 2nd division, which division was then moving up the line of communications to allow the 1st division to push on to Gandamak. General Tytler and his brigade also moved forward at this time to J alalabad, and he was most careful to give strong escorts to the hospital. The writer has in war time been left in imminent danger on occasions without any escort whatever, surrounded by helpless hospital servants and defenceless doolie bearers. No soldier is ever exposed to such risks in ordinary war experience. Sir Sam. Browne was then at Jalalabad, where the headquarters of the 1st division were concentrated. A large hospital had formed there under Surgeon-Major Porter, Medical Staff, who had arrived out from Netley in March. On the writer joining this headquarters hospital his independent existence merged in the larger hospital. Advantage was taken of the stay at J ala,labad to visit the "many interesting Buddhist remains which surround this historic old town, and we found in Mr.
