The Cuvier Press Club, located at 22 Garfield Place is a historic former house in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. It is also referred to locally as the Fechheimer Mansion and as of 2006 served as the headquarters location for Cincinnati-based firm LPK. ==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.〔''Cincinnati Enquirer''; "A New Home," Sunday, June 25, 2006〕 Two stories tall, the frontispiece possess many Neoclassical details, such as Corinthian columns and pilasters, as well as Corinthian details in the cornice, entablature, and pediment.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 1. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 587.〕 The style is described as Italian Renaissance with a stone wall facade, Italian tile floor, and marble fireplaces. Many similar houses were built at the same time but have lost their architectural integrity; the Fechheimer House is significant partly because it retains so much of its original style and construction. When it was built, it was one of many residences on its street, but all others have since been destroyed.〔
