East Liverpool Historical Society

THE BEGINNING

The Saturday Review, Sat. Feb. 27, 1886.

Probably the end of the 1800's or very early 1900's. We're not sure this is the same building as the current Ridinger Building or not. There are other buildings in dowNtown East Liverpool that originally had 2 or 3 stories and had any additional story added later. The building to the right of the Thompson Building on the Diamond comes to mind as one.

As this photo shows, at some point in them a fourth story was added to the Lowe Building.

Today, picture taken from approx. the same place as the first picture in this series.

This could be at the time of the gasification of commercial buildings in the downtown or could be at the time the building was remodeled with the addition of a third story.

Note the reference to New Ridinger Building. Now that could mean new from ground up or new by virtue of a additional floor added and general remodeling.

Hyperlinking, or as it is also called framing, without permission is not permitted.
 
Legally speaking framing is still in a murky area of the law though there have been court cases in which framing has been seen as violation of copyright law. Many cases that were taken to court ended up settling out-of-court with the one doing the framing agreeing to cease framing and to just use a regular link to the other site.
 
The East Liverpool Historical Society pays fees to keep their site online. A person framing the Society site is effectively presenting the entire East Liverpool Historical Society web site as his own site and doing it at no cost to himself, i.e. stealing the site.
