TheLandmark Office Towers is a complex of three historically renovated 1930-completed 259 foot 22 storyhigh-rises that are located on the property ofTower City Center in Downtown Cleveland'sPublic Square district.[1] The building features very deep recesses on its south side. Actually, the building is three towers in one. These are the Midland Bank Building, the Medical Arts Building, and the Builders Exchange Building. The complex was to include a fourth tower that was never completed and so there is still an empty space where that tower was to go to the present day.[2]
The towers are the 1920s example of what architects thought future buildings would look like as defined by theart deco movement. They were built at a time when Cleveland's population had reach nearly a million and so there was a demand for more and more office space in the city's central business district.[3] It was hoped by the developers, the railroad and real estate magnatesVan Sweringen Brothers, that the buildings would serve this need therefore they invested some $20 million in the project.[4] The towers still sit on some of the most expensive and prized land in the city, making them a vital magnet for Cleveland big business. This can be exemplified by the fact theFortune 500Sherwin-Williams calls the complex home, having purchased the three buildings in 1985[5] The 1.2 million sq ft complex was purchased by BillionaireDan Gilbert's Bedrock group in 2023, prior to Sherwin-Williams's planned move to a new building on Public Square in late 2024.[6]
