The Society has published a revised edition of the 1989 publication entitled Final Salute. Of the 600 plus veterans that the Grandview Heights High School Alumni Association has identified thus far, 62 lost their lives in the line of duty. This second edition of Final Salute builds upon the wonderful work of the original authors.

Copies of Final Salute are available for purchase here.

The 2024 display period for a 100+ Year-Old Home marker has ended.

The Society’s 100+ Year-Old Home Marker Program helped tell your home’s story during September and October 2024. If your house was located in Grandview Heights or Marble Cliff, was built in 1924 or before, and retained much of its original front exterior façade, you had the opportunity to acknowledge this by displaying a marker in your front yard.

Even though the 2024 display period has ended, you will have the opportunity to display your marker again next year and future years during September and October. Each year going forward, new homes become eligible as they reach the century mark.

If your home is 100+ years old and located in either Grandview Heights or Marble Cliff, the Society is excited to announce a new program designed to help you acknowledge and celebrate your home’s place in history .

The Society provided insight into Stauf's Grandview Heights location on the historic Bank Block which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
