Downtown Toledo s historic Spitzer Building has a new owner for the first time since its construction in 1896.

The 10-story building, Toledo s first steel-framed skyscraper, was sold April 13 to Ergur Private Equity Group LLC in San Francisco for $800,000, Lucas County records show.

The firm earlier bought the former Fifth Third Center building across Huron Street at Madison Avenue.
