| 説明 | Built in 1930, this Art Deco-style ten-story skyscraper was designed by Law, Law and Potter to house commercial office space and retail space. The structure was the first steel-frame high-rise in Madison, and replaced the earlier Tenney Block, which had been built by the Tenney family in 1877. The building is clad in limestone with simple first and second story facades featuring large storefront windows at the first floor and narrower windows on the second floor, granite panels at the base of the facade, two retail spaces on the Main Street side of the building and one retail space at the rear of the building along Pinckney Street, a side entrance to the lobby with a recessed portion of the facade with the word “Tenney” emblazoned above the entrance, stepped corners at the entrance bay and the windows on the second story above, and an entrance with decorative bronze mullions, replacement doors, and a decorative metal screen on the transom above the doors. The sill of the third floor windows features a band of extruded belt coursing with dentils at the base, with windows at the central bays of the Main Street and Pinckney Street facades featuring green terra cotta recessed spandrel panels between the windows on each floor up to the tenth floor, large fluted pilasters between the windows with spandrel panels, replacement windows, bands of geometric belt coursing at the header of the ninth floor windows and headers and sills of the tenth floor windows, chevron-shaped wall sconces at the top of the pilasters between the central windows, and limestone parapets with setbacks at the corners enclosing the building’s low-slope roof. The interior of the building features the original lobby with bronze trim, Art Deco-style railings, marble wainscoting, decorative geometric ceiling trim, historic chandeliers, and the original bronze letterboxes. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. The building presently houses commercial office tenants on the upper floors, with three retail spaces on the ground floor. |
