Design and construction
The 2-story stone mansion was originally owned by the Fechheimer family. Marcus Fechheimer commissioned Samuel Hannaford and Edwin Anderson to design the townhouse. It is reportedly the oldest surviving residence designed by Hannaford, who also designed many public facilities in the region including Music Hall, City Hall, and the Cincinnati Observatory.[3] The style is described as Italian Renaissance with a stone wall facade, Italian tile floor, and marble fireplaces.
The Social Club Years
In 1938, Cincinnati's Cuvier Press Club moved into the building from their former location on Opera Place.
The building was listed in the National Register on October 26, 1972. The following year, the building was acquired by the City of Cincinnati and re-opened as a Senior Citizens' Center.
2006 redesign
The building was purchased by advertising agency LPK in 2005 and a redesign was begun to conjoin the neighboring Butterfield Center into headquarters and meeting space for the agency.[4]
