Mrs. Frances Trollope was an English novelist with a caustic wit, who moved with her family in 1827 from Bristol to the utopian community Nashoba Commune in Tennessee. The community failed the family then moved to Cincinnati in February 1828. In an effort to support her family, she opened a grand emporium called The Bazaar, which was located at the 411 East Third Street, on the south east corner of Third Street and Broadway in Cincinnati. The Bazaar, however, was not a success and her and her family left Cincinnati in March 1830 and returned to England. In 1830, a music and dancing academy was opened in the building, having renovated it for their purposes, and in 1840, the building was occupied by the Physio-Medical school. View on Ohio Memory.
