Such a great central location- I’m glad It’s still standing, but a shame it no longer anchors the Clintonville community as a traditional High School

My husband is the great grandson of Jacob Weisheimer. His grandfather was Alfred Weisheimer, one of the sons of Charles. We just went to Germany a few years ago and found out more information on the Weisheimers there and met several of them in Walheim, Koblenz, Andernach and Osthofen. We just hosted one of the 16 year old daughters this summer. I wonder if any of the other Weisheimer descendants would like to meet and talk.

Hi,

I have a picture of Como Bakery in my book, page 57.
I have a picture of Jimmie’s Drug Store, and I will post it to the web site soon.
I have been unable to locate a picture of McCarthy’s drugstore. His son still lives in the family home in Clintonville, and has no photos of the drugstore. (See also the entry on my web site for Clintonville Pharmacy.)

Where was the Doughnut shop? I will add it to my “wish list”, which is also on the web site.

Thanks for your interest!

Shirley

Comment on On Top of the World…or at least Arcadia (Street) by James

This looks to me the view from atop the school, but facing SE. You can see the edge of the football field along the fence line in the middle left of the pic. The white house in the middle right is still there, at the corner of Adams and Arcadia. That large apt building on the other corner is still there, too.

Comment on Schreyer house by Kay Vance

I lived from 1963-1972 in the apartment above the garage(originally the servant’s quarters above the stables) I remember Dr. Sophie Rogers owned it at the time my mother and I moved in. Upon her death Dr. Eleanor Luthard of Cleveland. It was Peter Pan Playhouse when I lived there. There were many rooms and might have had original furnishings. I would love to see pics of this old house, which was located at the NE corner of Schreyer and High. Do you have any more info about this wonderful old house?

This is amazing! wonder if the current businesses know the history of the spaces they occupy. That’s pretty neat! Thanks for sharing!

I record the address here just as it is mentioned in the newspaper clipping. Detailed descriptions within the article describes the property as being “ground adjacent to Glen Echo Park, corner of Indianola and Olentany Avenues” and also “404 feet of parkland grounds along picturesque Glen Echo Ravine, where Indianola Avenue joins Glen Echo Park.”
