Built for the George J. Meyer Malting Co., which was founded in 1906. (Meyer had previously worked for the Curtiss Malting Co. at 1100 Niagara St.) The facility was doubled in size with a reinforced concrete addition to the north in 1913. The office entrance was a rare local example of Art Nouveau design. The front office was enlarged in 1954. The complex was later occupied by the Stroh Brewery which operated it as the Scheafer beer malting facility until 1984. The remaining buildings were demolished in 2016.
