CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Cuyahoga County opened its new administrative headquarters at 2079 East 9th Street Tuesday with a ceremony followed by a public open house.

Part of the old Ameritrust complex, the headquarters will be home to more than 600 county employees.

County employees that have located at various leased and county owned buildings will now be centrally located in one location convenient for the public.

The building, built and owned by Geis Companies, will be leased to the county for 26 years with the option to purchase for $1 at the end of the lease.

Geis Companies has invested over $260 million in the former Ameritrust complex that sat dormant for years.
