Decades of Imagination: The Creative Legacy of Dayton's Historic Davis Linden Building
DAYTON, Ohio, June 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Davis Linden Building, an historic landmark located at 400 Linden Avenue in Dayton, Ohio, has long been a beacon for creative professionals seeking customized commercial spaces. Owned by Matt Dieringer of Dieringer Development, the facility continues to thrive and expand, offering a nurturing environment for artists, businesses, sculptors, photographers, and other creative professionals.
Over the years, the facility has seen good times and bad. But Matt Dieringer's vision for the Davis Linden Building has been, and will continue to be, one of growth and community. "We are committed to provide spaces that not only meet the unique needs of our tenants but also foster a sense of belonging and collaboration," says Dieringer. This commitment is evident in the building's diverse range of tenants, each contributing to a vibrant and supportive community.
One of the most notable tenants is Michael Bashaw, a musician and sculptor who has located his studio in the Davis Linden Building since the 1980s. Bashaw's long-term presence is a testament to the building's ability to provide a stable and inspiring environment for creative professionals. "My grandfather was a tenant in the building in the 1950s, so I was well aware of it," says Bashaw. "I was originally looking for a space where I could work on my sculpture and do music rehearsals. I'm very grateful and very fortunate to be here."

"I'm on year two and have already outgrown one space," says tenant Tiffany Lewis, owner of Immortelle Bijouterie, an era-inspired jewelry and clothing shop. "I love the atmosphere here – the big windows, the open concept, and that there are other artists here."
Becca Brumfield, the building's office manager, shared her view as both a tenant and employee. She described The Davis Linden Building as a center of creativity, business, and community. Her husband, Trevor, operates one of Ohio's last full-service typewriter repair and sales shops, TB Writers Plus, located in the building since 2023.
The dedication of the Davis Linden Building's management to promote a sense of community among its tenants is one of its defining features. This collaborative spirit is what sets the facility apart from other commercial spaces. In that spirit, the management will soon unveil "The C2 Initiative," based on the idea of Creativity and Commerce. The initiative is intended to expand on that sense of community with memberships, access to shared creative space, and much more.
As Dieringer Development continues to invest in the growth and development of the Davis Linden Building, the future looks bright for this creative hub. With its commitment to providing customized spaces and fostering a strong sense of community, the Davis Linden Building will undoubtedly remain a cornerstone of Dayton's creative scene for years to come.
