Buckstaff Bathhouse Details

The Buckstaff Bathhouse has been in continuous use since it opened in 1912, and is thus one of the best preserved structures on Bathhouse Row. Named for shareholders George and Milo Buckstaff, the structure replaced the former Rammelsberg Bathhouse. The 27,000-square-foot bathhouse has three floors, and it originally had a large hydrotherapeutic department. Only Buckstaff, the Fordyce, and the Imperial had these. The Buckstaff is classically designed, with Doric columns and urns adorning the front of the building, constructed of taupe brick with white stucco and wood trim. The Buckstaff is a great example of the classically designed Edwardian-style buildings popular during the first decade of the 20th century.
