Demolished Historic Buildings
Ashland Avenue
1. Charles Silbernagle House: 1196 Ashland Avenue: Around 1910-1975: Demolished by the Grandview Heights Public Library for an expansion.
Fifth Avenue
1. 1. John E. Price House: 2101 W. 5th Avenue: Around 1885-Before 1921: Unknown reason for demolition. The site had no home by 1921, so the house was gone before then. Records show only a garage on the site as far back as the mid-1930s, so the house may have burned and left the garage. The development shown in the new photo was built in the 1960s, but was not in the same location as the house.
