Rising to a height of 282 feet (86 meters),[2] the Standard Building was the second tallest building in Cleveland when it was completed in 1925. Three of its four sides are clad in cream-colored terra cotta with a recurring starburst motif. The south face, which can be seen from Public Square, is unadorned and windowless. It was designed by Knox and Elliot architects, and was built for $7 million.[3] It was built by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen who owned the building until 2014, when it was sold to Weston, Inc.[4] HistoryDuring the Great Depression, Standard Bank ran into financial difficulties and was sold by the BLE. It merged with two other Cleveland banks in 1930, forming Standard Trust Bank. This bank subsequently failed in 1931 and its assets were liquidated.[5] From World War II through the 1960s, the bank lobby served as an indoctrination center for draftees.[1] In the 1940s the building housed Cleveland College, a downtown campus of Western Reserve University, and was the last building of that campus.[6] To the east, across Ontario Street, is the Marriott at Key Center, built on the site of the landmark Engineers Building, which the BLE sold in 1988 for development, moving into the Standard Building.[7] To the north, across St. Clair Avenue, is the Cuyahoga County Justice Center. The Old Stone Church abuts its south side. Currently it is the 21st highest building in Cleveland. It was designated a Cleveland Landmark in 1979.[8] In 2007, the boundary[9] of the Euclid Avenue Historic District was increased[10] to include the building, among other structures. In 2014, it was purchased by Weston, Inc. for $3.9 million, and {{as of|January 2017|lc=yes}} is being converted into an apartment building.[11] See also
