mrclifton88 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Looking great! Not quite "Schofield-scale" :) but a really fantastic looking reproduction of the original facade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StapHanger Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Looking great! Not quite "Schofield-scale" :) but a really fantastic looking reproduction of the original previous facade. Here's the original: :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seicer Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 So it was revised into a simpler pattern and then mucked over with a more modern facade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StapHanger Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 ^Yep. We understandably focus our disdain on the icky post war modernizations, but there were several facade changes in Cleveland in the early 20th century, too. You'll notice in that same pic the original ground floor facade of the building next to the Garfield, before the columns were put in. Both buildings were "bankified" to add gravitas to the big bank tenants. In contrast, the City Club building was de-bankified, with an original greek temple facade replaced by the current storefront (which has itself since been modernized to some extent).

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This project is really looking good. It's time to develop E 6th/Short Vincent again with retail, bars, restaurants etc. The Theatrical still stands and the old Roxy space would make great anchors for this ''T'' block area. Hard Rock Café relocation would make a great anchor on Short Vincent and bring nice foot traffic. I would convert the first floor parking garage that mars the E 6th/Short Vincent northeast corner into retail, restaurant, bars etc and add an additional floor on this monstrosity. A nice streetscape redo for these two densely located streets is in order as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jam40jeff Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 This is an interesting thread. http://www.youbemom.com/forum/permalink/8407823/can-i-run-a-restaurant-name-by-you Somebody knew about Ruby's being a no-go in February. do you like it better if I tell you more details? Prime steak, raw bar, historic old bank building with huge marble pillars and marble walls? 2-25-2016 3:28pm I see the building has a name, I think it's a good idea to incorporate that into the name. Garfield's is good. 2-25-2016 3:36pm And, no, I don't read youbemom.com, I'm just a good Googler! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audidave Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 It sounds like he's a pretty audacious guy. I can see someone talking him out of that location. What is better than renovating an old building for a chef? Being allowed to have a hand in the design of space in a new audacious building.

eyehrtfood Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 A little search found "The Marble Room" name registered by "Steak Holders, LLC" back in March. Frank Sinito, of Millennia, the Garfield Building owner, is listed on the application... He owns Lockkeepers... and back in 2014 (Crea/PD article) announced he would open two downtown restaurants including a "luxurious" one. I guess this might be it... by default.

Anyway no mention of the restaurant he was rumoured to be working on. Think it was The Marble Steak House or something like that. It does mention a pizza place called Midici Pizza www.mymidici.com which if it is the same one is a chain out of CA looking to expand quickly.

ink Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 ^^Im confused. The former National City lobby is not in the Garfield Building, its in the New England Building under the Holiday Inn Express.

Here is an old photo of the lobby No, it isn't the Holiday Inn lobby, but it is parallel to the Holiday Inn lobby inside the same building--New England Building. There is not a full size bank lobby in the Garfield Building, although there is a highly-detailed pass-thru over to East 6th and a very nice space at the back of the building that might have been occupied by Cowell and Hubbard.
