Lubbock (Postcard History)

[ePub] Lubbock (Postcard History) by Russell Hill in Arts-Photography

Description

Railroad tycoon turned real estate developer Patrick Calhoun named the premier residential boulevard of his Euclid Heights allotment the Overlook because of its location high on a bluff overlooking Case School of Applied Science; Western Reserve College; Lake Erie; and the city of Cleveland. By 1910; the boulevard was lined with the mansions of Clevelands wealthy and powerful. Today; although traces of the Overlooks glory days remain; most of its great mansions are gone; replaced by apartment houses and the dormitories and fraternity houses of Case Western Reserve University. This is the story of that transformation.
