Wow!  George Foley.  Blast from the past, when a young me would sip a glass of wine and pretend to be oh-so-bohemian listening to jazz at the Brandywine on Euclid Ave in the late eighties.  Sadly, no wine at the library, but I can still pretend to be cool.

As part of the Greening the modern preservation movement: Bauhaus at the brink series, Anthony Hiti, chair of the historic resources committee of the AIA, Cleveland Chapter will review the history and significance of the Breuer Tower and discuss the challenges of preserving buildings of the recent past.  He will also update those in attendance with the latest developments on the building's fate in his edifying talk, "The Cleveland Trust Tower - is it worth saving?" This is an opportunity to hear and see the biography of Marcel Breuer and see the breadth of his work from an early age through the Cleveland buildings, Ameritrust and Cleveland Museum of Art, two of his last.
