DescriptionThe Woman's Magazine Building and Press Annex were built in 1903. The Press Annex was redesigned in 1908 by architects Eames and Young so that it more closely resembled the design of the Magazine Building and to add a second story to provide more work space. In this photograph, taken on August 21, 1908, the roof of the conservatory and the roof of the southern portion of the building have been removed. Reportedly, the presses continued to roll during the entire remodeling, printing "The Woman's Magazine," and "The Woman's Farm Journal." University Heights #1 is just visible in the distance. The street on the right is Oberlin Avenue (now Harvard Avenue).
