The new school at E. 62nd Street and St. Clair Avenue in Cleveland adds a modern three-story building on a site that once was home to the former Kausek Brothers Department Store, then later a furniture store and apartments. The $21 million first phase is part of a $30 million overall project to move the school, which started in 2003, from the former St. Vitus school in the same neighborhood. Juniors and seniors usesthe new building while freshmen and sophomores remain at St. Vitus until the full school is complete.

Tony Burke, the school’s marketing manager, said St. Martin and its 380 students have outgrown the old site. It adds close to another 100 students by 2022 when the building is fully complete.”Our new building is a state-of-the-art facility that enhances our interdisciplinary project based learning communities,” Burke said. “It ensures our students are fully prepared for what they will see and experience in college, and eventually in their workplaces.”
