The Impactagon
History of The Impact Group Offices
Built in 1881 as a bank barn by Hial and Milton Danforth, who came to Ohio from Vermont to be dairy farmers.
The structure has long been regarded as the most significant remaining landmark in Darrowville, a small farming community founded by the two brothers who served as surveyors for David Hudson when he came to Ohio from Connecticut to explore the Western Reserve.
The barn was designed to feed all the cattle at one time. The piled-up stacks of hay were pitched from the center hole to the ground floor, where the animals gathered to feed. The foundation is tooled sandstone.
The building has been completely modernized by architect Alen Sveda, though the rooftop cupola is original, except for the wooden louvres, which were replaced with glass. The building has had many uses through the years, namely as a dairy barn, antiques auction house and a meeting place and storage facility for the Civil Air Patrol.
In 2014, The Impact Group acquired this iconic landmark, breathing new life into its timeworn walls. The Impactagon now serves as a welcoming hub for employees, clients, and guests alike, fostering collaboration and creativity in every corner.
