Marble Cliff Station on Fifth Avenue


A view looking west along Fifth Avenue captures the Pennsylvania Railroad’s Marble Cliff Station on the left-hand side of the street. The present-day entry to Upper Arlington’s First Community Village is located at the extreme right of the photograph in front of the railroad tracks, a horse-drawn carriage can be seen on the other side of the tracks, and trees along the Scioto River are visible in the background. In the 1930s, this building was moved across the Scioto River to its new location at 2057 Dublin Road, where it now serves as the office of the Marble Cliff Oil Company.
