THE MAIN ENTRANCE to the Stranahan Memorial Building is an interesting exercise in masonry work. The twisted corbeling, which commences about twelve feet above the floor, was masterfully installed.
The appeal, enhanced by the warmth of the masonry, has made the Stranahan Memorial Community Services Building a favorite building for many Northern Ohioans over the past twenty years. The demonstrated durability of the masonry materials promises that area residents can continue to enjoy the building for many more years to come.

COVER
WHEN Wolff/Lang/Christopher Architects, Rancho Cucamonga, California, designed the Upland California police station they drew many of its simple forms and details from historical structures in the area. Subtle bands of color and various textures of concrete masonry were used to visually reduce the building's size and to establish its friendly scale. The building space is distributed among two levels and a small basement. The 32,000 square foot facility cost $4,778,000. Constructed of steel frame with masonry bearing walls, the building features split faced and vertically scored block. Block was supplied by Orco Block, Riverside, California, and mason contractor was Winegardner Mason Contractors, Yucaipa, California. Photo by Fred Daly.
