Historic Toledo property going up for auction
At the edge of the nascent Vistula neighborhood a businessman from New York state, Joseph Secor, staked his claim off North Summit Street in 1870 by building what was then a waterfront home on the Maumee River. The public has a chance to bid on that historic building by June 20. The husband-and-wife duo at Helminiak Real Estate & Auction will close bidding at 6 p.m. that day for this gem of Toledo’s story. Dubbed the Secor Mansion, 311 Bush St. is a reminder of a burgeoning Toledo in the last third of the 19th century before the upper class moved to the Old West End neighborhood and Summit Street became more industrialized.
