Ingraham Building, 25 Southeast 2nd Avenue, City of Miami, Miami-Dade County, USA / Built: 1927 / Architect: Schultze & Weaver / Construction: Turner Construction Co. / Floors: 13 / Added NRHP: January 4, 1989 / Architectural Style: Chicago School

The Elegance of the 1920's. Construction started in 1926. Renovated in 1990. The Ingraham Building represents a renaissance of the classic downtown Miami.

Completed in 1927, the building was designed by the architectural firm of Schultze & Weaver, designers of the famous Waldorf-Astoria in New York and the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. Built in the early 1900s "Chicago School" style of architecture, the Ingraham Building has been described as "one of the most elegant office buildings in downtown Miami." New Times voted The Ingraham Building as having the "Best Lobby" in its 1998 "Best of Miami" edition.

With rusticated stone walls, wrought iron decoration, double-arched windows, and hand-painted wooden eaves, the building evokes the design of a Florentine palace. The building was constructed for the Model Land Company, the real estate division of Henry Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway.

The Ingraham Building, with 200,000 square feet of modern office space, in a setting of old-world charm, has no equal. Named after Henry Flagler's chief engineer, the Ingraham Building is recognized as a landmark for its central location, its illustrious history and its association with the
heydays of Miami.

Downtown Miami will continue to grow, there will be taller skyscrapers, luxurious and spectacular buildings, but there's only one Ingraham Building
