The property, with its original tower built in 1896 and located at 101 South Salina St., grew over the years to 120,000 s/f of office/retail space and over 500 parking spaces, all situated on over an acre.  Lemoyne College’s Occupational Therapy Program occupies the portion of the campus at East Washington and South Warren Streets.  Among the spaces that will be available is the historic bank space that faces Clinton Square.
