Public testimony will follow a presentation by RP Madison, International to Cleveland City Planning Commission. The commission will vote on demo permit for Breuer/Cleveland Trust/Ameritrust Tower. Be there early to sign in.
Check out the attachments here from the 1967 Cleveland Trust Annual Report found in the Cleveland Public Library Business Department. The article is entitled "Faith in Downtown Area – New Headquarters Building to Alter Cleveland Skyline".
Here's a familiar except, but remember this is not one of our current players speaking; it is a Cleveland Trust spokesperson in 1967:
"In announcing the new building, Cleveland Trust said that the project was tangible evidence of the bank's faith in metropolitan Cleveland. "Our faith in the future of the downtown area includes the firm belief that Euclid Avenue will continue to be the city's main street and that Ninth and Euclid will remain the community's financial center," management said.
"The new building will provide much-needed space and new facilities for our growing banking and trust business and will increase the efficiency of our entire operation. It will meet our anticipated space requirements and at the same time provide some rental area."
If the City Planning Commission votes to allow the demo, the Cleveland skyline will be altered for certain.
