Goodall Building

The Goodall Building is a historic commercial building in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, built in 1893 to designs by architect George W. Rapp. The building on Ninth Street stands out for its brick and sandstone facade, which is complemented by iron elements and other types of stone. A prime example of Second Renaissance Revival architecture, it features striking columns, pilasters, an elaborately articulated cornice, large sandstone blocks, and bay windows. Originally purchased by stone dealer William Goodall, who chose to rent it out rather than occupy it himself, the building housed banks and offices, among other tenants. Thanks to its well-preserved historic fabric, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
