It was built in three parts: an original portion, a little over half a block in depth, dating from about 1895 and built in the Romanesque Revival style; an eastward expansion of this portion that extended almost to the rear of the block, dating from between 1900 and 1910; and a full-depth addition along the south wall dating from the late 1930s or early 1940s. The nominated property and boundaries can be seen in Figure 1, page 16. Floor plans of the building, including dates of additions, are in Figures 2 through 5, pages 17 through 20. The original section of the building rests on a rock-faced cut-stone raised foundation and has a smooth stone water table (photo 1) The walls are of brick laid in a common bond pattern. On the main west elevation, the building corners at the first floor are rusticated, while projecting octagonal brick turrets extend from the second floor to the parapet.
Above the third floor is a projecting sheet metal cornice, surmounted by a brick frieze in the parapet that is composed of five recessed panels in each of the four bays of the facade (photo 2). A sheet metal cornice cap and an elevated central parapet extension, also of sheet metal, complete the facade design. A faint paint shadow reading "Hercules," the name of a later occupant after the building ceased functioning for brewery purposes, is faintly visible in the panel of the extended parapet. Main elevation window openings on the first floor are rectangular and had transoms, respectively. All windows are set in pairs, with brick piers separating the windows of each pair. The first floor west elevation windows have been replaced with glass blocks and the transoms have been infilled with brick, but wood 2/2 double-hung windows survive in the second and third floors.
Arched transom windows above the third floor windows have been replaced by translucent panels. First floor windows have stone lintels and sills, while the second and third floors have stone sills and arched brick lintels (photos 1 and 2) floor, with their wood windows and transoms intact. Second and third floor windows have rectangular and round-arched windows in the original portion of the building (the first three bays east of Front Street), with industrial steel sash in the rest of the windows on this floor.
The sequence of construction here is not certain, but it appears that the Page Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places On the north elevation (photo 3),paired rectangular window openings remain on the first while the second and third floors have segmental-arched and round-arched openings, NPS Form 10-900 a United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH Section number - initial expansion of the building between 1900 and 1910 may have been only a single story high, with the upper stories having been added when the south addition was built around 1940 (photo 4). This would account for the marked difference in window designs.
The other possibility is that the upper floors had windows like those in the original portion of the building that were then altered to their current form, probably when the south addition was built. The east elevation is similar in character to the north (photo 5), except that the steel sash appear on all floors. The southern part of this elevation is the east elevation of the south addition from about 1940, with similarly plain brick walls and steel industrial window sash. The south addition's main west elevation (photo 6) is in the same plane as that of the original building but is much plainer in character. The brick walls are unornamented except for a modestly-projecting brick cornice; windows and doors are placed asymmetrically. The windows have stone sills and plain lintels, while the doors are aluminum-and-glass replacements of recent vintage.
The window on the first floor is composed of glass blocks, while steel industrial sash fill all the other openings on this elevation and on the similarly-designed south elevation. On that elevation (photo 7), the windows on the first floor are small, paired steel sash, while on the upper floor they are the same size as on other elevations. The interior is plain and unornamented, clearly functional in character (photos 8 and 9 show west, then east views on the first floor; photos 10 and 11 show west, then east views on the second floor; photos 12 and 13 show eastward views on the first floor). The structure is a combination of steel and wood.
Steel beams have replaced original wood ones in the older portion of the building, while in the south addition and in areas of the second and third floors it appears that the original design consisted of steel columns and beams with wood floor joists. The spaces on each floor are open, with no partitioning. Some remnants of the original building's south wall remain in place, but large portions have been cut through or removed entirely (photo 10) There are three stairways in the building (two are shown in photos 14-16), all of concrete construction with pipe railings. All of these appear to date from construction of the south wing around 1940.
Page Continuation Sheet NPS Form 10.900-a 8 861 NPS Form 10.900-a United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Bor Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH Section number - The Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works is locally significant under Criterion A as a representative of the beer-brewing industry associated with the once-large German population of Columbus. Concentrated in the southern part of the city's downtown area, German-owned businesses were an important part of the city for most of the 19t century and well into the early 20" century. The primary residential area for people of German background was to the east of High Street, in what is today the German Village historic district.
The German-owned breweries west of High Street, along South Front Street, were among the city's largest German-owned enterprises, and the four breweries here constituted the greatest concentration of such businesses in Columbus. The Born Capital Brewery was one of the four, and this firm's former bottling works is significant as the sole surviving structure of the Born complex. In addition to its distinctive architecture, the building is important for its ability to help understand the once-vital German brewing industry of Columbus.
(Darbee, German Columbus and Schlee Brewery Historic District) The Born bottling works has a high level of integrity of location, design, and materials Although it has received an addition and some alterations, the building retains nearly all including double-hung wood two-over-two windows; rectangular, segmental-arched, and round-arched window openings; ornate brickwork; and a painted metal cornice, parapet wall, and parapet cap On the interior, the wood structural system of the original building remains, with some reinforcement or replacements by newer steel elements. In the addition on the south, the original steel and wood structural system is intact.
Both portions of the building, while lacking any equipment from the period when the bottling works was located here, retain the open plan that characterized the building when it was built and then later expanded The Born bottling works is one of only three buildings in the South Front Street brewery district that were known to have been built as free-standing bottling plants. The others were the Nicholas Schlee Bottling House at the northeast corner of Wall and Hoster streets, and the Louis Hoster Bottling Department at the northeast corner of Brewers Alley and South Front Street. The Schlee building was built after 1887 and prior to 1899 and by 1910 was used for non-brewery purposes; the Hoster building was built in the same period as the Schlee, expanded by 1910, and continued as a bottling works into the 1920s.
Both were brick buildings, rectangular in form, with flat roofs and modest Page Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places of its original late 19' century Romanesque Revival design elements and materials, 8-861 VPS Form 10.900 a United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH ornamentation; they were vernacular in design and did not receive the level of architectural ornamentation of the Born bottling works. Both of the other buildings have been rehabilitated and remain standing today. The Wagner brewery likely had its own bottling works, as well, but it is not known from available information which building would have housed it; all Wagner buildings have been demolished.
(Darbee, German Columbus and Schlegel, Lager and Liberty) Federal law required that bottling plants had to be on sites other than those of the main brewery. Clearly this was an impetus for construction of the free-standing plants associated with the Hoster, Schlee, and Born breweries. However, all three bottling works and early 20" centuries. Bottling of product would have occurred at all the breweries early on, typically under the same roof as the brewing process itself. Expansion of production and sales would have required larger bottling facilities, forcing the decision to build additional facilities and, as noted in separate buildings as the law required Local Context: The German Brewery District The evolution of the German brewery district in Columbus between the early 1870s and the late 1980s can be traced in Figures 6 through 13, pages 21 through 28.
Beer brewing in Columbus began shortly after the new community became Ohio's capital in 1812. Undertaken at first by English immigrants with English brewing techniques, the industry came to be dominated by German immigrants within two or three decades. Bernhard Burck was the first German brewer, opening his brewery in 1834 a few blocks north and east of what became the main German brewery district on South Front Street. His enterprise was short-lived due to his untimely death in 1850 Louis Hoster, the second German brewer in the city and the first in what would become the South Front brewery district, established his brewery on the west side of the street below Livingston Street (later Livingston Avenue) in 1836. The evolution of the brewery district over time can be seen He found a ready market in the growing German citizens as being of German heritage.
(Schlegel) (Schlegel) Page Continuation Sheet Section number 8 National Register of Historic Places also represent the growth and physical expansion of the German breweries in the late 19th population of Columbus, which by the late 19" century would count about a third of its 8.86 VPS Form 10.900-a United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH Section number - Hoster's City Brewery stood on the west side of South Front Street, opposite what today is called Brewers Alley, and was the principal German brewery until George Schlegel opened the Bavarian Brewery in 1849. Schlegel's brewery was just south and east of Hoster's, at the southeast corner of Front and Reinhard (today Blenkner) streets.
The southward growth of the Front Street area as the center of German brewing in Columbus took another step in 1859, when Conrad Born opened the Capital Brewery in 1859. By the end of the 19 century, the Born brewery would become one of the two largest breweries in this area. Except for the bottling works, the subject of this nomination, all of the Born brewery operations were located on the west side of South Front Street. In 1860, Nicholas Schlee took over the Bavarian Brewery, and it is Schlee's name that is most commonly associated with that property. As was often typical of entrepreneurial industrialists personally involved in the daily operation of their businesses, Schlee built his home in 1865 on the west side of South Front Street, just across and a little south of his brewery; Born's brewery was just south of Schlee's house.
In turn, Born built his home east of Front Street, opposite his brewery and south of Schlee's. Born's bottling plant would later be built just north of his house. Hoster's home was near his brewery, at 31 West Livingston Avenue, just west of South High Street. (Darbee, German Columbus) Increases in beer output in the late 19 century tracked the success and growth of the German brewers. From 4,000 barrels a year coming out of the three German breweries by the late 1870s, production grew to over200,000 barrels a year twenty years later. The fourth and final German brewery came well after the first three. August Wagner, an immigrant from Bavaria who arrived in 1898, was working as brewmaster at the Hoster operation when, in 1905, he decided to open his own brewery. The next year he completed the August Wagner Brewery atthe northwest corner of South Front and West Sycamore streets.
The building featured a large statue of the jovial and portly King Gambrinus, the "Patron Saint of Beer," posed with one foot on a beer keg, a foaming mug of beer in his upraised hand. (Darbee, German Columbus) A burgeoning Columbus population between the end of the Civil War and the era of World War I provided a large and growing market for local brewers. As much as a third Page (Schlegel) Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places (8-861 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH Section number - of the city's population in this period was of German heritage and tended to concentrate in the near south side, close to the principal German brewers. From only 18,554 citizens in the 1860 census, Columbus grew to 88,150 by 1890 and to 181,511 by the census of 1910.
After World War I, growth continued unabated. From the eve of Word War II until today, the city more than doubled in population, from 306,087 in 1940 to an estimated 747,755 in 2007. (Columbus Metropolitan Library data) Decline of the German Breweries The large German population of Columbus was concentrated in the southern part of the downtown area, between the railroads and the canal on the west and around Parsons Avenue on the east, a large area of several square miles. This formed a ready market for well. Some 230 acres of the main German residential area was listed in the National Register as the German Village Historic District in 1974. That traffic, however, was two-way. Competing breweries outside Columbus, able to ship their products into the city by the area's dense railroad network, began to cut into the German brewers' markets.
In 1905, the Hoster, Born, and Schlee operations combined to form the Hoster Columbus Associated Breweries Company as a means of gaining efficiencies of scale and increased marketing clout. Operations at the three breweries, however, remained largely unchanged. Wagner continued alone as an independent brewer. (Darbee, German Columbus) The consolidated breweries struggled to remain profitable but faced serious headwinds in the early 20t century. They posted deficits in 1908, 1909, 1912, and 1914, no doubt affected by the fact that the temperance movement was gaining momentum. By 1908, for example, 57 of Ohio's 88 counties were dry, and the invasion by brewers outside Columbus continued to eat into what markets were left. Nicholas Schlee, last of the original German braumeisters, died in 1914, and his brewery went into receivership.
At this same time, anti-German sentiment arising from the start of World War I further cut into sales of the German brewers' products, and then Prohibition in 1920 made it impossible to brew and sell beer at all. All the German breweries stopped beer production when Prohibition took effect, and the various brewery buildings were put to other uses. Some, for example, became warehouses and storage buildings; another housed a paper company; yet another was home to the Columbus Buttermilk Company. With one exception, beer production would not return.
(Darbee, German Columbus) Page National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet 18-861 NPS Form 10.900-a the brewers' products, which also went by rail to other parts of Ohio and out of state as United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Bor Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH August Wagner was the exception. After the start of Prohibition, Wagner continued in the beverage business, but only with non-alcoholic products. A 1927 advertisement for the August Wagner & Sons Products Company promoted such treats as Wagner's Famous Augustiner, Wagner's Malt Tonic, and ChampagneMist.
These all seemed to be intended to sound as though they had an alcoholic kick, but the tag line "Healthful -- Stimulating -- the beer business permanently, but Wagner survived on his soft drinks and returned to brewing after Repeal in 1933. His 1906 brewery was the last to cease production, early in 1974. (Darbee, German Columbus) All four of the German breweries reached their greatest physical size in the period leading up to Prohibition, from that time on, there was a gradual erosion as building after building was demolished, concentrated in the period between the start of Prohibition and about 1940. The largest and most important of the Hoster buildings survived and are standing today, probably because their large floorplates made them adaptable to numerous income-producing uses.
In addition, all of Schlee's brewery buildings also survive; they were listed in the National Register as the Schlee Brewery Historic District in 1987.(The current owners of the Hoster buildings have shown no interest in National The Wagner Brewery was demolished shortly after it closed in 1974, although King Gambrinus did survive and stands today in a small park on the west side of South Front Street. Some warehouse buildings west of the brewery survived into the late 1980s but have since been demolished. Today there are no extant buildings associated with the Wagner brewery Only one of the German brewers' houses survives: Nicholas Schlee's, which dates from the 1865 and has been the home of the Germania Club, a singing and social group, since 1923.
Hoster's house was gone by the 1890s, and Born's disappeared sometime after Conrad Born was born in Germany in 1812 and emigrated to the United States in 1837. He had entered the butcher's trade in Germany and continued in that business in both Page Continuation Sheet Register listing.) 1937.

He settled in Columbus in 1839 and became a United States citizen Born was the one German brewer in Columbus not trained as a brewer.
He went into real estate in 1856 and in 1858 bought land on South Front Street in order to enter the brewing business, seeing an opportunity in the fact that existing breweries could not keep up with demand. With an investment of $10,000, Born established the Capital City Brewery in 1859. Capacity was 6,000 barrels a year. (Schlegel) By 1872 the Born brewery, now known simply as the Capital Brewery, consisted of three buildings located on the west side of South Front Street, somewhat north of College (later Sycamore) Street, and the enterprise was controlled by Born and his sons. By the late 1880s, the Born brewery had doubled in size, with more than a dozen buildings and additions and a capacity of 60,000 barrels a year.
All of the Born plant remained west of South Front Street; Born's home, dating from sometime between 1872 and 1887, at this time was the only Born building on the east side of the street. (Schlegel) the west side of the street, which housed the motive power for the firm's delivery wagons and was the southernmost of the brewery's buildings; and the bottling works, at the southeast corner of Front and Beck streets. The original bottling plant building occupied about half of the block between Front Street and Wall Alley, but by 1910 it had been extended nearly all the way east to Wall. Both the stable (now demolished) and the bottling works were designed in the same Romanesque Revival style as the main brewery across the street.
This reflected the firm's prosperity, but also the attitude of industrialists of the time that their production buildings should have a sense of character, permanence, In this same period the Born brewery continued under family control (Conrad Born passed away in 1890), and both capacity and production continued to grow. By 1900 the brewery had a capacity of 100,000 barrels, but production was only about 65,000. Even operating at 65% of capacity, however, the Born brewery was the city's second largest, century. The 1905 brewery combination would largely put an end to the friendly rivalries among the German brewing firms and, as noted, both World War I and Prohibition marked the end the colorful era of German brewing in Ohio's capital city. (Schlegel) Page Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places in 1844. and style.
behind only the Hoster brewery's output of over 300,000barrels at the turn of the 20th By 1899 two more major buildings had been added to the Born complex: a large stable on (8-86) YPS Form 10.900-a National Park Service Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works, Columbus, Franklin Co., OH Section number - Between 1910 and 1922 almost the entire Born brewery complex was demolished following that period's abrupt decline in the German breweries' beer market. By 1922 only the stable, the bottling works, and Born's house survived. The stable housed both a Coca-Cola bottling works and the Columbus Buttermilk Company, while the Hercules Trouser Company had set up its operation in the former bottling works.
Born's house came down sometime between 1937 and 1955, and the stable survived into the late 1980s or early 1990s; the sites of both have been re-developed The Hercules Trouser Company expanded the bottling works by constructing a large addition along the building's south side, along with a wing at the rear used for shipping and receiving. Both these additions were made between 1937 and 1955. The first addition along the south side probably dates from the late 1930s or early 1940s. The rear wing, which was one story in height and built of concrete block, and was removed during 2007; it probably dated from the early 1950s. Hercules is shown as occupying the building as late as 1962; sometime after that, Hercules moved out and the building served as a Salvation Army warehouse and retail store, which moved to another location in 2007.
The accompanying maps (Figures 6 through 13, pages 21 through 28) were traced from originals dating from 1872 to 1962 (no earlier maps with similar detail were found). They track the evolution of the German brewing district that extended along both sides of Front Street between Livingston Avenue and Sycamore Street. A final map, prepared in1987 as part of the National Register nomination for the Schlee Brewery, shows conditions at that time. Since then, the former Wagner warehouses and the nearby Born stable (marked "vacant") have been demolished, as has the one-story rear wing of the Born bottling works. All the other buildings remain standing, and most have been rehabilitated for new uses such as apartments, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues.
New construction of restaurant and office buildings has filled in much of the vacant land, and the area has been designated by the City of Columbus as The Brewery District, an official historic district with design review The Born Capital Brewery Bottling Works is qualified for National Register listing as the sole surviving building associated with Conrad Born's brewery in the former German brewing district of Columbus, Ohio. This was the second largest of the city's German breweries and once was a major presence in the area south of the city's downtown area.
