Designed by Joseph G. Steinkamp & Brother, the Neoclassical-styled^[2] Hotel Metropole opened in 1912 in downtown Cincinnati as a 10-story hotel. In 1924 an 11th floor penthouse apartment was added. In 1971 the building was converted to low-income housing with retail and restaurants on the first floor.^[3]
