Representing the History of the Pearl
The Maddox Building, c. early 1906
The red-brick Maddox Building, constructed in 1906 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, sits on a quarter block in the heart of the Pearl District.
The Maddox Building's initial use was to serve the railroad. As the railroads faded into history, the building transitioned to trade, as did many of the warehouses lining 13th Avenue. Maddox Transfer & Storage, Inc. utilized the building for storage and services, and the name and logo of the Maddox Company remain painted on the building today.
