Bender's Restaurant
Bender's Restaurant is a historic restaurant and commercial building in downtown Canton, Ohio, United States. Constructed in 1899 and expanded soon afterward by connecting two adjacent buildings, it remains in use as a restaurant, and it has been named a historic site.
Canton's biggest years of growth occurred around the turn of the twentieth century, and Guy Tilden was the city's leading architect of the period.〔Whitticar, Ruth, and Amy Shriver. ''(National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Guy Tilden Thematic Resources/Architecture of Guy Tilden in Canton (1885-1905) )''. National Park Service, July 1986.〕 In the 1890s and early 1900s, Tilden favored the Romanesque Revival style, but Bender's represents a transition in his thinking away from revivalism and toward simpler, newer modes of construction.〔 He was responsible for the original Bender's building, constructed in 1899 as the Belmont Buffet,〔 although the present structure is significantly larger than the original building as purchased by the Benders firm in 1908. Soon after obtaining the Belmont, Benders bought two buildings next door, and before long the restaurant had displaced the former occupants, a livery and barbershop.〔 No significant changes have been performed since 1908.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1277.〕 By 1918, Bender's reputation had grown to the point that the ''Automobile Blue Book'' was promoting it as a destination for out-of-state road travellers.〔''Official Automobile Blue Book 1918''. Vol. 3. New York, Chicago, and San Francisco: Automobile Blue Book, 1918, 832.〕
Two stories tall,〔 Bender's is built of brick on a foundation of sandstone,〔 while the buildings added in 1908 are constructed of ashlar and brick.〔 Bender's facade is divided into three bays; much of the exterior features stained glass in place of ordinary display windows, and comparatively little ornamentation is otherwise present.〔 Inside, large amounts of wooden panelling are present, and other original elements are also present, including the separate women's entrance, the marble wainscoting, the coffered ceilings with visible structural elements, tiled floors,〔 and a group of murals produced by a travelling German painter.〔
In 1987, Bender's was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture. It was part of a multiple property submission of five Guy Tilden-designed properties in Canton, all of which were added to the Register together; the Harry E. Fife House and the Weber Dental Manufacturing Company are likewise still on the Register, although the Hotel Courtland and the Case Mansion have since been removed.〔
