He was an architect (graduated from The Ohio State University), and also developed and helped to develop numerous homes and apartment complexes around Columbus. This photo represents one of several Elephant Lumber Company stores.

I am so sad to see the elephant go. Turlieve is the name of the business that replaced Harvest on N. High St.

I believe it is completely gone now. My father worked for Elephant Lumber from the late 1940s until he retired in the late 1970s. His primary work site was the main store which I think was on the corner of Broad Street and Nelson Avenue on the near west side of Columbus. But he filled in at the Clintonville store now and then when necessary.

There were several Elephant Lumber stores around Columbus; this happened to be the Clintonville location.
