The ''Winton Manor'' is a 1916-built 〔Hoefler, S. P. (2003). ''Images of America: Cleveland's downtown architecture''. Arcadia: Great Britain.〕 historic 149 foot 11 story high-rise former grand hotel that has been converted to a senior living apartment building in the trendy Theater District in downtown Cleveland.〔http://www.emporis.com/buildings/175345/winton-manor-cleveland-oh-usa ''Winton Manor'' Retrieved on 2015-09-15〕 The building was opened in 1916 as the Hotel Winton. It sits along the important Cleveland throughway of Prospect Avenue just outside of the burgeoning Cleveland Theater District. ==The Design== The Winton was designed by Nelson Max Dunning of Chicago, who only built two other significant buildings which were the 153 foot Merchandise Building in Toronto and the American Book Company Building in Chicago in 1912.〔http://www.emporis.com/companies/111383/n-max-dunning-chicago-il-usa ''N. Max Dunning'' Retrieved on 2015-09-15〕 The style is known as the Chicago school, which takes its name from the famous movement of skyscraper construction in the 1880s and 1890s in the Windy City. The hotels of this era are typical examples of trying to maximize street traffic into the hotels and provide room for retail and business ventures.〔http://ech.cwru.edu/ech-cgi/article.pl?id=H5 ''Hotels''Retrieved on 2105-09-15〕 The Statler, Hotel Cleveland, the Allerton Hotel and the Winton are surviving examples of this. It is telling however that only the Hotel Cleveland survived as a hotel, the other three are now fully residential.
