Millionaire Row is a complete row of luxury buildings composed of more than 300 luxury houses with stones, bricks and tiles. One of the mansions belongs to the banker, financier and philanthropist Daniel Palmelli Ayers. Ayers was born in 1825 and became the president of Commercial National Bank. By 1885, his worth reached $3 million. Ayers served as the director of 32 companies before his death. Ayers' commercial interests include railways, iron ore, manufacturing, oil, steel, cement, coke and natural gas.

Ayers Building was built at 1876, located at 320 Euclid Street1. Elsta's Victorian style was influenced by 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Expo. This Victorian villa was designed by architect Joseph irland, an immigrant from new york, who opened an office in Cleveland at telephone number 1865. Elsta is characterized by a central tower, a tiled roof and carved windows. There are minarets, decorated eaves, spacious porches and arched doors and windows, which make this mansion far from other millionaire townhouses. The interior is fireproof, including some famous rooms, such as the library inlaid with black ebony panels and white ivory, and the central hall illuminated by gas injectors and colored skylights.

Eells is an influential man. He used his home to entertain powerful politicians. Daniel and his wife Mary held a dinner party for 100 craftsmen who built this building. Attending Ayers' daughter's wedding included President-elect James A. Garfield and Ohio Governor Charles Foster. President Benjamin Harrison also visited Ayers Building. Ayers and party politician mark hanna persuaded william mckinley to run for president in the White House Library. About ten years after the completion of this mansion, Mr. and Mrs. Ayers built their beach cliff country manor on the banks of the Loki River.

It marks the decline of the ranks of millionaires, because houses are replaced by commercial buildings. The rise of automobiles has enabled the rich to relocate, and they can still enter public squares from their new residences. Many luxury houses were sold and subdivided in the 1920s. Ayers Building was a private residence until 1922. The eells family sold the mansion to Warren Corning, who in turn sold it to Price McKinney. The Schultz brothers &; Co.) purchased the 90-year lease of Corning Home at 320 1 Euclid Street and converted it into Spencer Business School. Cleveland Bible College occupies Ayers Building from 1942 to 1957. This building has been transformed into an administrative building. Cleveland Bible College, renamed Malone College, 1957 moved to Guangzhou. The mansion was vacant for two years until 1959, when the Sahara motel was built.

With the rise of automobiles, motels developed at the end of the 20th century. It is not just a simple resting place. In some cases, it becomes a destination. The $4 Sahara motel was built by Mintz Construction Company. Marvin Mintz, president of the hotel company and vice president of Mintz Construction Company, joked that Euclid Avenue seemed to be "only a few miles away" from the Sahara motel. The style of Sahara Motel is modeled after the resorts in Las Vegas and the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago. The hotel opened on July 28th, 1960.

It is planned to run the Sahara Motor Hotel by itself, and Mintz Hotel Company hired Borg Nelson as the general manager of the hotel. Before coming to Cleveland, Nelson managed the Nordland Y Lan Hotel in Copenhagen, where he served many members of the European royal family, the Park Hotel in Niagara Falls. As an employee of 120, Nelson's goal is to combine the efficient quality of American hotels with traditional European cuisine and service. Carl tees, the manager and owner of the restaurant, also provides entertainment and relaxation for tourists and locals. 320 1 Euclid Street is not only an episode in the university campus, but also an ever-evolving entertainment and recreation place for nearly a century.
