It is abutted on each side by other buildings, and the unornamented Record Rendezvous is a 4-story commercial building at 300 Prospect Avenue in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, just a few blocks southeast of the city's center at Public Square. Prospect Avenue is a historically significant commercial strip, and historic districts exist on the opposite (north) side of the street from Record Rendezvous, as well as a few blocks east. a red brick façade with continuous stone window sills and coping, as well as a flush stone band inset in the parapet. The commercial storefront, flush across the east bay but with curved sections leading to a recessed central entry in the west upper three floors. The interior of Record Rendezvous has been modified on the ground floor to accommodate a more recent retail tenant, with dropped acoustical tile ceilings and other non-historic finishes.

The upper floors remain essentially unaltered, however, with large open spaces and undecorated plaster finishes characteristic of its historic use as storage space. A historic stair also remains in the building historic period, other than changes to signage and storefront cladding materials, which are relatively minimal and to be tenants, but again such modifications are common to historic buildings of this type. The building still clearly conveys its historic appearance and associations. 300 Prospect Avenue (Record Rendezvous) was originally constructed c.1908 as an addition to the Herold Building, with interior connections and shared ownership and occupancy. The Herold Building at 310 Prospect was sold independently Herold Building and Record Rendezvous were physically separated c.1920, with masonry used to infill all interior functioned separately ever since.

The Herold Building derives its primary historic significance from the modernization of its facade with structural glass panels, which occurred in 1948, and Record Rendezvous derives its historic significance from the business of the same name, which first occupied the building in 1945.

The store was considered the city's premiere location for but the Prospect Avenue store always remained the unquestioned center of the business and culture it represented and was the longest surviving location.

Mintz died in 1976, at a time when downtown Cleveland was already rapidly losing its time, Record Rendezvous had open bins that allowed customers to browse on their own and eventually even added 1945 Mintz moved the store to 300 Prospect Avenue and doubled its size. Music was still a highly segregated industry at the time, and Record Rendezvous initially catered mostly to Cleveland's and settled on "rhythm and blues." The "R&B" classification soon became associated with a particular new variety of music especially among the nation's rapidly growing population of young people. Its African-American clientele placed Record witness it first hand as his customers' tastes began a marked shift away from jazz and big band toward rhythm and blues. From his experience at Record Rendezvous Mintz had begun to foresee that rhythm and blues music could be wildly strictly rhythm and blues.

Freed was reportedly less than enthusiastic at first. Although the black radio and music industry NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5/31/2012) founder, Leo Mintz, made important contributions to the marketing and sales of rock and roll music in Cleveland during the rhythm and blues programming, with most of the records pulled from the racks of Record Rendezvous. Mintz was hoping including March 1952's Moondog Coronation Ball, widely regarded as the world's first rock and roll concert. After leaving for New York in 1954, Freed continued the style of programming and live shows he began in Cleveland and expanded their roll.

Also in 1949, RCA introduced the microgroove, seven-inch, vinylite 45 Rendezvous in the center of this musical transformation, and the store's interactive self-service model allowed Mintz to and thrown his career off track. When he met Leo Mintz in 1951,Freed was quietly hosting a classical music program on National Park Service/ National Register of Historic Places Registration Form African-American - niche market.

Mintz was a sponsor of the station, and he offered to get Freed a new show if he agreed to play was growing rapidly after World War II, it was still unusual and generally considered taboo for such "race" records to be market.

Mintz invited Freed to Record Rendezvous, where he could observe the musical phenomenon for himself, and he United States Department of the Interior OMB No. 1024-0018 Record Rendezvous Cuyahoga County, Ohio Name of Property give the program a try in a slot from midnight to 2 am. observations and Freed's first visit to Record Rendezvous in 1951 would include numerous white teens dancing in the store to the newest rhythm and blues records. A biography of Freed by John A. Jackson, however, produces convincing people, whether black or white, and it was this rapidly growing and more liberated youth culture among all races that would feed the explosion of rock and roll.

The sheer size of the crowd also amazed everyone and made it clear that rhythm and blues had around it into the national consciousness, the Moondog Coronation Ball is now widely regarded as the world's first rock and roll concert.

Use of the term "rock and roll" to describe the new musical style is also closely tied to Freed, Mintz and Record Rendezvous. As early as the 1920s, the words "rock" and "roll" had appeared in the lyrics of "race" records, first as a euphemism for sex, and later as a way to describe the strong, dynamic beat at the heart of the emerging rhythm and blues that he and Mintz had come up with the idea spontaneously in 1951 in a conscious effort to reduce the racial stigma associated with rhythm and blues music (reinforcing the idea that they were intentionally after a white audience), and many and though his initial use may not have applied to the music itself, he clearly popularized the term among a much broader NPS Form 10-900 County and State (Expires 5/31/2012) was eventually convinced.

With Mintz's backing and Freed's cooperation, the somewhat skeptical station was willing to His influence in popularizing rhythm and blues music among white audiences was ultimately considered one of Freed's and generally untapped African-American market in Cleveland. In later years, the now legendary story of Mintz's evidence that Mintz's customers and Freed's listeners in the early 1950s were almost entirely African-American, and Freed was trying to soothe the howling dog, which elicited such a response from his audience that he adopted the song as his courting and his audience grew steadily, noticeably affecting the local nighttime radio market by January 1952 and leading oversellingtickets and even threatened with prosecution, although no charges were ever brought. The local press blasted style.

After World War Il the words began appearing together more frequently as a phrase, and some southern blacks he still referred to the music itself as "blues and rhythm" until after he moved to New York in 1954, soon after which he filed most significant contributions to the development of rock and roll. There remains some debate, however, about whether or developing the radio persona that would make him famous, a wild animated style in which he would frequently add his own even ringing a cowbell. It was an unusual style but proved popular among the young rhythm and blues fans Freed was Reinforced by the early success of the Moondog House, Mintz and Freed quickly decided to expand their promotional was again emerging as a local celebrity in his own right, acting as master of ceremonies.

The most significant of these (demolished 1977), the concert attracted between 15,000 and 20,000 people to a venue with a capacity of roughly 10,000, attempted to force their way in. Freed, Mintz and the other partners in the promotion were accused of intentionally arrived as a significant musical and commercial force.

Following the model established in Cleveland, Freed and his partners- including Leo Mintz - decided to try promoting a live concert at Newark's Sussex Avenue Armory in May 1954. The event was immensely successful, once again surprising everyone in the industry with the size and enthusiasm less than a month after the Newark concert he was being recruited to New York's WINS radio, where he began York radio in the fall of 1959, banished to relative obscurity until his death in 1965.
