Fenn Tower, Historic skyscraper in Cleveland, Ohio.

The 22-story Fenn Tower rises to a height of 266 feet and features a distinguished architectural design by George B. Post and Sons.

Opening in 1930 during the Great Depression, the building was initially constructed as the National Town and Country Club before becoming Fenn College property in 1937.

The tower represents one of the first three college skyscrapers in the United States, alongside structures at the University of Pittsburgh and Thomas Jefferson University.

The building contains five elevators and currently serves as student housing for Cleveland State University, following extensive renovations completed in 2005.

The structure cost 1.5 million dollars to build and held only one event as the National Town and Country Club before the stock market crash altered its purpose.
