Built St. Louis
Historic Downtown

Frisco Building
906 Olive Street
Built: 1902, 1905
Architect: Eames and Young
Status: partially occupied; under renovation

Like the nearby Wright Building, the strong expression of vertical piers reflect the Wainright's influence. Massive ornamental brackets at the cornice stem from more traditional decorative styles. The building suffered declining occupancy during the 1980s but remains more than half-full. Renovation is ongoing.
