The Beaux-Arts style building is made of steel and concrete the exterior is rendered in Indiana limestone,[11] brick and granite.[8] Originally the building was considered fireproof as there was "no wood of any description being used,"[11] even the floors were buffed cement with the hall floors mosaics.[11] The corners of the building are adorned with ox heads.[10] In addition to the 1913 building, the east building was built in 1916, and the north building was built in 1939.[8] TenantsFrom 1935 until 1956, the office building housed the headquarters of Procter & Gamble (P&G).[12][13] The P&G World Headquarters are now located in twin towers several blocks to the east.[8] In 1992, the building was purchased by a group of tenants and investors from EQ Office, which was owned by Chicago billionaire real estate investor Sam Zell, founder and chairman of Equity International.[14] The purchase was followed by an about $1,000,000 in renovations.[14] In July 2014, the building, which was then 88% occupied, was offered for sale.[8] The tenants included Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority, Sound Images (later renamed Gwynne Sound),[15] the Charles H. Dater Foundation and the Greater Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky Film Commission.[8] It was purchased by an investment group led by Patrick Gates.[16] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2008a}} 2. ^{{cite news |last1=Demeropolis |first1=Tom |title=EXCLUSIVE: Former P&G headquarters building sold |url=https://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2014/12/16/exclusive-former-p-g-headquarters-building-sold.html |accessdate=18 June 2018 |work=Cincinnati Business Courier |date=December 16, 2014}} 3. ^{{cite news |last1=Tenkotte |first1=Paul A. |title=Our Rich History: Appreciating those fascinating skyscrapers, offering treasure trove of views, history |url=https://www.nkytribune.com/2015/07/our-rich-history-appreciating-those-fascinating-skyscrapers-offering-treasure-trove-of-views-history/ |accessdate=18 June 2018 |work=Northern Kentucky Tribune |date=July 20, 2015}} 4. ^{{cite news |author= |title=Mrs. Vanderbilt Sr. Dies In Home At 89.
