The observation deck was originally intended to be used by Goodyear for future dirigible travel between Cleveland and New York City. The deck was planned to be a terminal, but this was ruled unfeasible, and so it was used as an overlook and tourist attraction. On a clear day, visitors can see 30 miles from downtown Cleveland. In 1976, a Vietnam veteran who had been fired by the Chessie System stormed the 42nd floor conference room. Subsequently, direct access to the floor was removed. When Chessie left the building, the observation deck reopened. Since the September 11, 2001 attacks, the observation deck has remained closed.

My wife's grandfather's first cousins Orris and Mantis Van Sweringen built it in 1927.
