Chittenden Hotel
Chittenden Hotel

The Chittenden Hotel was a hotel building in Downtown Columbus, Ohio. The hotel, located at Spring and High streets, was in three succeeding buildings. The first was built in 1889; the second in 1892; and the third in 1895.The Chittenden was created by Columbus businessman Henry Treat Chittenden, known for owning the Columbus Railway Company, in the horsecar and streetcar business. He was also involved in real estate and the arts, and was educated in and practiced law. Chittenden had seen William Neil, a stagecoach entrepreneur, make a second fortune with his Neil House hotel, inspiring Chittenden to follow suit. In 1873, he purchased the five-story Parker Building, an office building with retail space. In the late 1880s, he converted it into the first Chittenden hotel, adding two floors among other extensive renovations. It opened in 1889. The building was gutted in a large fire in 1890. The next building was constructed in 1892 in a more lavish style. Chittenden built theaters around it – the Henrietta on Spring St. and the Park on High St.; he also built a massive auditorium nearby.A block-wide fire demolished the second hotel on November 25, 1893, spreading from the unfinished auditorium to the hotel and Henrietta Theater. The city block had damage of about $300,000; Chittenden had only insured the hotel for $50,000. Undeterred by the fires, Henry Chittenden built his third hotel in 1895, using solid materials including stone, steel, concrete, and brick. The eight story building was held under the Chittenden family's ownership, past his death in 1909, until it was sold in the early 1950s. Just after 1960, the hotel's Moorish towers and eaves were removed to lower maintenance costs. The third hotel was the longest-lasting. It closed on March 15, 1972 and was demolished in February 1973.The high-rise William Green Building stands at the site of the hotel.

Ohio Finance Building
Ohio Finance Building

The Ohio Finance Building is a historic building in Downtown Columbus, Ohio. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.The seven-story Commercial-style building was completed in 1910, with an unknown architect and builder. Originally known as the Peter Powers Building, it was primarily used for light industrial uses until the early 1920s: machine shops, clothing manufacturers, and printers. As industries left downtown, the building was slowly converted into office space. By 1923, it became known as the Crumrine Building once the Arthur M. Crumrine Co., a large advertising company, acquired offices there. In 1925, the Ohio Finance Company moved into the building and gradually became its sole tenant. In 1954, the Columbus Transit Company began leasing offices there as well, sharing the space with the finance company until 1960, when the Ohio Finance Co. went out of business. The transit company left the space in 1970 (its services replaced by COTA in 1971–74), and the building sat vacant for about fifteen years. It has been used minimally for offices and commercial storefronts since the mid-1980s.From 2015 to 2020, the building and its neighbors, including the Gaetz Music House building at 49-53 W. Long St. and Rooming House building at 31-37 W. Long St., were renovated to hold apartment units. The $11 million project, known as Microliving at Long & Front, has small apartment units, ranging from 207 to 735 sq ft. The units are the developer's second microliving project, after the nearby Stoddart Block building was completed. The apartment complex opened in June 2020.
