Some of the most significant American architects from the opening decades of the 20th Century are represented here such as Albert Kahn Chicago Illinois as well as how their partnership with Selden-Breck transformed the Western and Midwestern urban architectural landscape. Photos depict the Univ. of Michigan Library now the Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library along with the Michigan Union Building at South Street & South Univ.

The Chronicle’s headquarters remained at 801 Texas and eventually a new glass-and-granite facade was erected and absorbed nearby buildings. As evidenced by the photographs here Selden-Breck Construction Co. cranes and projects dominated Omaha Nebraska as their structures entirely modernized the cityscape and pulled the previously nondescript Western city into becoming an important transportation and architectural hub. Buildings include those of the classic Riviera Theatre a Moroccan Revival design by Chicago architect John Eberson which featured lavish stage shows and movies and was considered the most elegant entertainment facility in the Midwest later sold to Paramount and transformed in the 1990’s into the Rose Blumkin Performing Arts Center. Others include the Paxton Hotel Lord Lister Hospital Omaha Athletic Club Bankers Reserve Life Sharp Building Conant Hotel World Herald Reserve Apartments and Reserve Apartments.

All of the rooms originally had a telephone ice water on tap and maintained an around-the-clock laundery service on the 13th floor. Other notable buildings include the Rich & Sons Department Store 6 story building in downtown Atlanta now known as “The 1924 Building;†the Hippee-Polk Building in Des Moines IA which when completed in 1913 was Iowa’s tallest skyscraper and now a hotel; or the fascinating Civil Court House in St. Louis MO built 1928 completed in 1930 and and topped with a pyramid designed to resemble the Mausoleum at Helicarnassus one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World featuring 32 Ionic Columns roof of cast aluminum and sphinxes sculpted by Cleveland sculptor and artist Steven A. Rebeck. Two different buildings designed by the famed New Orleans firm Favrot & Livaudais include the Southern Baptist Hospital -- now owned by the Ochsner Health System with the original entrance abandoned now following Hotel Katrina and the Cotton Exchange Building now transformed into a bank and hotel at One Shell Square.
