344 North Canal Street, built 1910 by Tyler Hippach Glass Company. Fencing went up around the building just recently. To be demolished/redeveloped for 33-story (375 ft.) 343-unit residential tower. Image credit: Gabriel X. Michael
One last photo of Cassidy Tire before demolition. Built as the Tyler & Hippach Mirror Company Factory (Henry J. Schlacks, 1902). Soon to be another highrise, which is fine but I wish they had found a way to incorporate this fine building. Image Credit: Eric Allix Rogers
Cassidy Tire stands for just a little longer. Still bummer this handsome building isn’t being incorporated into the redevelopment of the site (which is otherwise a good thing). Image Credit: Eric Allix Rogers
