Summary edit

Description Originally designed by Samuel Hannaford and with the earliest sections dating to 1903, the old United States Playing Card Company Factory stood proudly at the end of Park Avenue in Norwood, Ohio until it was demolished in 2020. These photos were taken as work had just begun the previous week. Plans call for only salvaging a few small parts of the historically and architecturally significant complex, which has been poorly maintained since the United States Playing Card Company moved to Erlanger, Kentucky in 2009. The building provided a grand visual terminus and was an iconic landmark in Norwood, and its loss will undoubtedly be looked back upon by future generations as a massive mistake.
