The Halle Brothers Co., Cleveland, Ohio



Halle's in Cleveland was most identified by its gleaming
white terra-cotta building at the eastern end of Euclid
Avenue. It was built in 1910, and doubled in size by 1913

The Euclid Avenue Building backed up to
Huron Road (right). Halle's expanded across
the road in 1927 (left)

The so-called Prospect Building was
originally used for the Store for Men
and home furnishings. In the 1950s
Halle's consolidated all operations
into the Euclid Building.

The trapezoidal shape of the Prospect Building
allowed it to front on Prospect Avenue as well.
When the store consolidated, the Prospect
Building became a parking deck and warehouse.

In 1949, Halle's added a west wing along
Huron Road to the Euclid Building.

An aerial view shows the rear of the wedge-
shaped Euclid Building (with oriel windows)
and the Prospect Building across Huron Road.
