History

The twelve story structure was constructed in 1906 by the Ohio Savings Bank and Trust Company at the corner of Madison Avenue and Superior Street in Toledo's business center.[2] The building was described in 1910 as "one of the finest structures in the state". The building was designed by George S. Mills, who moved his architectural offices into the finished structure upon its completion.[3]
