Building's Story
The Hotel Statler first opened its doors on October 12, 1912. It was located on Euclid and East 12th Street. When it first opened, the hotel had 700 rooms.
Statler Hotels Grow
The Cleveland hotel was very successful. Because of this, more Statler hotels were built. They opened in cities like Washington, D.C., Detroit, St. Louis, and New York City. Other Statler hotels were also built in Hartford, Dallas, and Los Angeles.
Changes Over Time
In the 1930s, the hotel was made bigger and more modern. They added 300 more rooms. New areas like the Terrace dining room and a library were also added.
In 1954, Hilton bought the Statler Hotels chain. The Cleveland hotel was then renamed The Statler Hilton.
New Uses for the Building
Later, there were too many hotel rooms in Cleveland. This meant fewer people stayed at the Statler Hilton. The hotel was not as busy as it used to be.
In 1971, some floors of the building were changed. They became office spaces instead of hotel rooms. Hilton managed the property until 1973. After that, the building was renamed The Cleveland Plaza.
In 1980, the building was sold to an investor named Carl Milstein. He changed the entire building into an office space. It was then called The Statler Tower.
Becoming Apartments
In 2001, the building was changed again. It became an apartment building called Statler Arms Apartments.
After another update in 2019, its name changed to The Statler. Today, it is part of the Century Modern Collection. These are luxury apartments.
