The history of business activities at Chaglin Avenue and the intersection of land and land can be traced back to 150 years ago, when the area was still part of the town of Warrensville. 1866 or so, in the northeast corner of the intersection where the convenience shopping center in the center of Shaq town is now located, Allonzot and Rachel Gillette opened a pub, which has been serving people on Kinsman plank road between Cleveland and other cities for decades. However, the intersection or nearby retail stores did not appear until a long time later.

1920 due to the merger of dongjing village into Shaker Heights, this intersection was called Kin *** an Lee Corners at that time and became a part of the suburb of Van Sweringen brothers project. The first batch of retail enterprises located at or near the crossroads operate in a series of houses on the north side of Chaglin Avenue east of Li Road. According to a Cleveland catalog of 1923, it was originally a grocery store, which was owned by Czech immigrants John buzek and Ella buzek in 166 1 1. The grocery store in buzek has only been in business for a few short years. Just before the land where it was located was sold, the house was razed to make room for a one-story brick commercial building in the northeast corner of 1925. Jinli Building, with seven storefronts facing Kingsman Road and five storefronts facing Li Lu, is home to many early Shack Heights retail stores, including Shack Heights Hardware Store, which is one of the oldest existing retail stores in the city.

Other commercial buildings will soon follow at or near this intersection, which is called one of the fastest growing commercial districts in Chuhoga County by an ordinary dealer 1926. Among them, it is worth noting that Li Jinsiman Building was built in the northwest corner of 1929 intersection. Located on the land previously owned by Van swell ingen and his wife, it is one of the few early commercial buildings in Kinsman Lee Kok that reflect the strict standards of Van swell ingen and his wife. The facade of this two-story building is semi-circular, facing Jian 'an Road and Lee Road. It was designed by the same construction company in charge of Shaker Square. 193 1 year,

Located at the crossroads, Jian 'an Road and Li Lu, which are rich in commercial and retail buildings, are now called Li Shopping Center. In the following years, it was a vibrant retail and shopping place for Shake Tavern residents, with famous Shake Tavern enterprises in the past and present, such as Haining grocery store, relatives Li Baoling, Shake Tavern, country market, green grocery and meat market, Horton jewelry store, pudding deli and Sol deli. Chin's Kin Lee Restaurant, Leonello Restaurant, Gay Shoe Store, F.W.Woolworth, Lota Kelly Sportswear, Baskin Robbins, Hough Bakery, Just Rite Cleaners and C.C.Nicholls sporting goods, etc. However, by the mid-1950s, its urban design in the early 20th century was characterized by storefronts close to the street and limited off-street parking lots, which made it obsolete. To make matters worse, the owners neglected maintenance. As early as 1957, the local merchants association had complained to the city about this matter. By the 1960s, the first regional shopping center in the north and east opened, attracting more shoppers to leave the city, and the situation became worse. Finally, cities and businessmen are more worried that ethnic transition is taking place in the residential areas in the southwest of the city.

Worried that 1959 after the renaming of Kingsman Road in Shaq Heights, the retail shopping area is now called Lee Avalon Shopping Center, which will have a negative impact on the shopping center, leading the city to take action, initially to protect its tax base, but later trying to maintain its comprehensive position in the southwest. 1960, its first action is to buy.
