A Roller Skating Rink building was built at Olentangy Park in 1906. Built just east of the Colonnade and north of the ravine, there was an additional approach from High Street. Famous local architect Frank L. Packard drew up the plans. It was designed to have a Spanish style and to be "one of the most elaborate and attractive buildings erected." The rink was 120 feet (36.6 meters) square. There were refreshment parlors, a band balcony, and retiring rooms for men and women.[1]
