Mayer & Weill Building (1898-1899)
495 Main Street, northeast corner of Mohawk Street
American Renaissance: The Renaissance goes vertical here, on a brick-clad, steel
frame structure ornamented with classical terra cotta details. This building, the
longtime home of Bing & Nathan, was constructed in the remarkably short time
of three months, January-March 1899. It was demolished in 1977 for a Burger King.
The tall building in the distance at right is Sinclair, Rooney & Company on
Washington Street, designed by Esenwein & Johnson in 1909.
