Historic Places - Rand Building
100 Houston
Street

This building, designed by “skyscraper architects” Sanguinet and
Staats of Fort Worth, ranked as the tallest in San Antonio when
constructed in 1913. It housed Wolff and Marx, a popular local
department store until 1965. In 1981, the San Antonio Conservation
Society entered into a lengthy series of negotiations with Frost
National Bank to save the building from demolition. The Society
purchased the building in 1981 and sold it the same year to
Randstone Ventures for restoration and preservation. Today, the Rand
Building provides offices with an adjacent parking structure. |
