The Winton Manor is a high-rise former grand hotel that has been converted to a senior living apartment building on Prospect Avenue in the Playhouse Square district of downtown Cleveland.[1] The building was opened in 1916 as the Hotel Winton.[2]

The Design

The Winton was designed by Nelson Max Dunning of Chicago.[3]

Closing and reopening

In 1931, the name was changed to the Carter Hotel and operated until the 1960s, having to close after a major fire.[4] The building is now a low-income housing property for senior citizens. This is partly due to its placement next to a major public transportation route.
