Cleveland Warehouse Historic District (Boundary Increase)
The National Park Service has not published a boundary polygon for this district; the map shows the listed properties inside it and the district's reference point.
Why it's listed
A small triangular area along West 10th Street has been added to Cleveland's Warehouse Historic District, bringing in one more building: the former Schaber-Reinthal & Company Picture Frame Factory, later known as Sammy's. Built around 1887 with work in 1907, the brick Commercial style structure shares the materials, era and warehouse and manufacturing role of its neighbors to the north. Railroad tracks once served the building and even entered its western side, as they did for nearby terminal warehouses. The district it joins had 58 buildings and spans about 100 years of commercial and industrial construction, from the 1849 Hilliard Block to the 1948 Lorenzo Carter Building. The accompanying amendment adds descriptions of every building and expanded history, correcting an early 1970s listing that detailed only a few key structures. Today the former factory serves as a restaurant, and many neighboring warehouses hold apartments, offices and shops.

What listing means for this property
This is a historic district. Buildings within its boundary are either contributing (they add to the district's significance) or non-contributing. Owners of contributing income-producing buildings can claim the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit; homeowners should look at state credits. National Register districts impose no design review by themselves; a local historic district ordinance, if one exists, does (the difference explained).
