Loganberry Books

Located in the Shaker Heights suburb of Cleveland is a historic building that currently houses an independent bookstore, Loganberry Books. Before this, the building was a warehouse for Nash Motor Company in 1926, manufacturing cars and trucks. Since then the space has been used for an aluminum window factory, a refrigerator showroom, a washing machine dealership, and then an auction house before the current owner Harriett Logan took it over in 2003. The bookstore is now 9,000 square feet and holds over 100,000 volumes of new, used, and rare books.
