English: Built in 1923-1924, this Beaux Arts-style office building was designed by Hewitt and Brown for the Northwestern National Life Company, though it is now known as the Loring Park Office Building. The wedge-shaped building stands on an irregularly-shaped piece of land at the corner of 15th Street and Oak Grove Street at the south end of Loring Park. The building was built to house the Northwestern National Life Insurance Company, founded in 1885, and replacing the previous building the company occupied, located at 11th and Nicollet, and built in 1905, which had become too small as the company grew into the second-largest insurance company in the midwest. The company continued to grow, which only increased during the 1920s economic boom and World War II, leading to the building becoming too small by 1946, necessitating the addition of a two-story annex to the east (rear). The building, however, was inadequate to house the growing company, a new location in the Gateway District urban renewal area was decided upon, with the new Northwestern National Life Building being completed in 1964, consolidating the offices of the company into a single location. The building was renamed the Loring Park Office Building in 1966, and housed a variety of commercial office tenants, including the managers office for Prince, until it was adaptively reused and converted into an apartment building in 2011-2012. The building features a limestone exterior with a Palladian Loggia entrance with Ionic columns at the narrow end of the building, decorative banding at the corners and at the base of the building, decorative bracketed window headers on the main floor windows, a simple cornice and parapet, a central light court, and a small modernist rear addition that originally housed service areas for the building when built in 1946. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. |
