Elijah Pierce Properties
Elijah Pierce Properties

The Elijah Pierce Properties were historic buildings in Downtown Columbus, Ohio. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.The properties included the art gallery and barbershop of Elijah Pierce at 534 E. Long St. and his former residence, at 142-44 N. Everett Alley. Pierce lived in the residence from 1946 to 1970, the longest he ever lived in one location. The barbershop was the first and only shop Pierce built. He was the barber there from 1954 until his retirement in 1980.In 1984, Pierce died and his wife sold the barbershop and art gallery building to Marvin Califf, co-owner of Columbus Time Recorder, a time clock business. He operated the business out of the space for about ten years.In 1986, the property was featured in a tourism campaign about African American culture in Ohio, the first major effort by a U.S. state government to promote minority culture. Other central Ohio landmarks in the campaign included the Martin Luther King Cultural Arts Center, the Dr. Lewis M. Early Residence, the Ohio History Center, and the Benjamin Hanby House. In late 1986, Pierce's artworks were set to permanently move to the newly-opened King Arts Center.Around 1995, Columbus State Community College began to buy up parcels for a new $7.5 million parking structure. By June 1995, he was the only hold-out of about 20 property owners, arguing that the school would not compensate him for his required move. The college was set to use eminent domain laws to force him from the property. The college eventually won the dispute, and the residence and barbershop were eventually demolished for the 1,000-car garage. A statue of Pierce stands near where the buildings had stood.

Gale House Condominiums

The Gale House Condominiums is a historic building in Downtown Columbus, Ohio. It was listed on the Columbus Register of Historic Properties in 2015. It was historically a mixed-use building, with retail (Gold's Pharmacy) on the first floor and residential space above. Today it houses residential and office space.The building is classified as a vernacular Victorian commercial structure. It has three stories, a stone foundation, brick walls, and brownstone bands. It has a sloping semi-flat roof. The three-story section has a hanging turret trimmed in brownstone on its southwest corner. The windows have limestone lintels and sills, some with a keystone motif. The building also has its original ornate cornice, featuring dental molding and scrollwork.The building was constructed in the mid-to-late 1800s by Franklin Gale, the editor of The Ohio Statesman. His family owned the structure until 1928. It changed hands several times. A single-story addition was built to the east in the 1930s, and expanded in the 1940s. From about 1971 to 2009, Inkling Printing operated out of the building. It was then sold several times, most lately to Savage Real Estate, in 2014. The building was restored to its near-original appearance, though no early photographs of it exist. Its original cast iron columns were exposed, as well as an original tin ceiling. The first floor was renovated for retail storefront use, while the second and third were developed into a residential unit.The building features a "local landmark", a door on the second story with no stairs or balcony attached. A sign below it reads "Watch the 1st Step!", and an original stained glass transom window is set above it.
