Read what the critics and historians say:

“Despite its architectural prominence and strong contribution to the urban fabric, Cleveland’s former central post office is a National Register landmark that might well have been destroyed had not an appropriate office reuse emerged for its cavernous loft spaces and elegant public lobby. van Dijk Pace Westlake Architects’ work to adapt the massive heavy-duty, steel-frame building to new functions demonstrates the complexities of this ultimately successful process... When the MK Ferguson Company signed a lease for the entire building, there was at last an ideal marriage of building and function.”
