Summary

Significance: The Rink's Cloak House Building was constructed in 1910 for Joseph A. Rink, who founded the store twelve years earlier. The store operated in this six-story building until 1940, when it was remodeled for use as a "five and dime" department store until the 1970s. Indianapolis architect Adolf Scherrer utilized Chicago School fenestration and classical detailing in the design of main facade. The building was individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places on September 27, 1984.
