Background
The Bingham Company Warehouse is a historic warehouse located in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. It was designed by the noted local firm of Walker and Weeks for the W. Bingham Company, and is one of the architectural firm's few utilitarian commercial buildings. For many years, W. Bingham Co. was the Midwest's largest hardware manufacturer and wholesaler. The W. Bingham Co. went out of business in 1961, and the warehouse was sold to a succession of owners over the years. The warehouse was sold to private investors in 2001, who converted it into apartments, known today as The Bingham. == About the building == === Construction === Cleveland entrepreneurs William Bingham and Henry C.
