The Moses Goldsmith Building is a historic residence in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1900, it was originally owned by Moses Goldsmith, the president of a firm that sold notions; rather than living in the house, Goldsmith built it for investment purposes, renting it to others.A brick house with elements of sandstone and limestone, the Goldsmith Building has been ranked as a fine example of Renaissance Revival architecture. Distinctive elements of its design include prominent string courses and molding courses, plus a large loggia.The Goldsmith Building was erected in the Clifton neighborhood at a time when that neighborhood was expanding greatly. Large numbers of prosperous members of Cincinnati society built grand homes in the neighborhood, making it a highly distinctive portion of the city. The house did not long stay in the Goldsmith family; Moses died within a few years of its construction, and his heirs sold the property in 1912. After Goldsmith's time, it was converted from a single-family residence to a multi-family residence. In 1982, the Goldsmith Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, due to its historically significant architecture; key to this designation was its loggia, which is almost unknown in Cincinnati.

The George Hummel House is a historic residence in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the early 1890s, it is built with numerous prominent components from different architectural styles, and it has been named a historic site. Built of limestone, the Hummel House is covered with a slate roof and features elements of granite. It was built with an irregular and asymmetrical floor plan, including a prominent porch and a turret.: 5  The two-and-a-half-story facade is divided into three bays, with the turret on one of the corners; it dominates the appearance, with the two-story porch being the house's second most prominent feature. Uniformity is absent from the porch: ashlar was used for its first-story pillars, while the flat roof of the second story relies on spindled wooden columns and balustrade. Erected to be the home of George Hummel, the house features variety in its stonework: courses of small blocks alternate with courses of large blocks, while the foundation and water table are built of random stonework in multiple colors. These elements, together with the porch and turret, lend the house an eclectic appearance with influence from multiple styles common during the late Victorian period.Constructed in 1892, the house was designed by master architect Samuel Hannaford. Between 1886 and 1896, Hannaford most favored eclectic designs for residences, and many of his surviving houses from the early 1890s were built with ashlar stone walls with clear courses.: 3  When the Hummel House was built, Hannaford was in the middle of the final stage of his career: in 1887 he had entered into partnership with two of his sons, and he retired from practice in 1897. Throughout his career, Hannaford produced buildings of numerous types,: 11  including numerous eclectic buildings as well as buildings in a wide range of standard styles.: 12 In early 1980, the Hummel House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its well-preserved historic architecture. It was part of a group of more than fifty Hannaford-designed buildings added to the Register together as part of a multiple property submission.

Clifton is situated around Clifton Avenue, north of Dixmyth Avenue, approximately three miles north of Downtown Cincinnati. Several historic buildings and homes remain in the neighborhood.

The Charles B. Russell House (also known as the "Duffel Building") is a historic residence in the Clifton neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1890, it is a large two-and-a-half-story house constructed primarily of limestone. Multiple windows, including several dormer windows, pierce all sides of the turret, while another large dormer window with Palladian influences is present on the house's southern side. A common theme in the design of the house's windows are string courses of stone that connect the windows and voussoirs that radiate out from the windows to many directions. Among its most distinctive architectural elements are the heavy stone front porch, which transitions from a verandah on one end to a sun porch on the other end, and the large circular turret on the front corner of the house, which is capped with a beehive-shaped pinnacle.Charles B. Russell was a leading Cincinnati businessman, occupying the office of treasurer for the Cincinnati Ice Company, which provided ice both for individual homes and for businesses such as the city's many breweries. Russell's house rests on a stone foundation, its walls are built of coarse, random ashlar blocks,: 4  and its roof is slate. This style of construction is common to houses designed by Hannaford during the early 1890s — all five extant stone houses that he designed between 1890 and 1892 feature coarse ashlar walls.: 3  During the final years of the nineteenth century, he was responsible for designing many fine residences like the Russell House: many prominent businessmen and politicians of the Gilded Age found his designs highly appealing, and the wealthy neighborhoods of Clifton, Walnut Hills, and Avondale were dotted with grand Hannaford houses.: 10 In the years after Russell moved out of his house, it passed through a succession of owners, starting with attorney Thomas S. Pogue, who purchased the property in 1905. Today, it is no longer a house, having been converted into apartments. Many of Hannaford's most important designs in the Cincinnati metropolitan area have been destroyed over the course of the twentieth century, but dozens of his buildings yet stand.: 10  In late 1978, fifty-five different Hannaford buildings in or around Cincinnati, including the Russell House and nineteen other houses, were nominated as a group to the National Register of Historic Places,: 3  and they were officially added to the Register in early 1980. The Russell House qualified for inclusion on the Register due to its historically important architecture, which was deemed to be significant statewide.

The George B. Cox House is a historic residence in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. An Italianate building constructed in 1894, this two-and-a-half story building was built as the home of leading Hamilton County politician George B. Cox. Largely a self-made man, Cox began to support himself and his mother at age eight after his father's death in 1861; within ten years, he entered politics, and at the age of twenty-four, he was elected to City Council. Before the age of thirty, he had laid the groundwork for political domination of the city, and his position as Cincinnati's political boss was firmly cemented by the late 1880s.In 1894, Cox arranged for the construction of a new house, to be designed by leading Cincinnati architect Samuel Hannaford. The resulting structure is primarily of sandstone construction, with a foundation of stone and a slate roof. Two of its most prominent elements are a large porch that covers the southern front of the house and half of its western side, and a 3+1⁄2-story circular turret that dominates the rest of the building. Located near the house is a two-car garage; built as a carriage house, its architecture is similar to that of the main house.Cox's house was built near to the end of Samuel Hannaford's career; in practice since 1858,: 10  he retired in 1897 at the age of sixty-two. During his career, he rose to the status of Cincinnati's leading architect, due to his responsibility for such buildings as the Cincinnati Music Hall.: 11  Many of his buildings, including the majority of the houses that he designed in Cincinnati, were constructed as the homes of wealthy or powerful members of the city's society; numerous rich and famous individuals of the Gilded Age found his style highly attractive.: 10 Among the owners of Cox's house after his death has been a chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha, which used the building as their fraternity house, and the University of Cincinnati, which purchased the property in 1939 and converted it into a women's dormitory. In late 1973, the Cox House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, both because of its connection to Cox and because of its historically significant architecture. Seven years later, it became one of twenty houses included in a multiple property submission to the National Register of Hannaford-designed buildings in Cincinnati and surrounding portions of Hamilton County; it was one of the collection's few houses that was already listed on the Register.: 3 In 2010, arrangements were made to transfer ownership of the property to the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, which announced plans to convert it into a branch library to serve the surrounding Clifton neighborhood. The library stated that the Cox House would replace a small storefront that previously served the Clifton branch. It opened in 2015.
