The exterior of the Fairmount, a bar, was damaged, but no one was hurt.
CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio – A Cleveland Heights bar was damaged after a part of the cornice of a prominent, century-old building plummeted to the ground early Sunday.
By Sunday afternoon, crews were picking up the pieces outside the Fairmount, a cocktail bar, on the ground floor of the Heights Medical Building on the corner of Cedar Road and Fairmount Boulevard. Large bricks from the cornice on top of the building’s facade fell causing exterior damage to the bar, which included knocking down its recognizable sign and awnings.
Jake Orosz, the owner of the Fairmount, said in an email that he narrowly escaped being hurt in the incident. Orosz said he had walked under the crash site just four minutes before the cornice collapsed. He said he was there to collect a phone charger he’d left behind after leaving work.“I’m just thankful that no customers or staff were injured,” he added.
The Fairmount will reopen on Monday at 4 p.m. and Orosz said guests and staff will only use the rear entrance right off the parking lot until scaffolding is set up in the coming days.
