Hill Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Durham, United States
The Hill Building rises 17 stories at the intersection of Main and Corcoran Streets, featuring modern architectural elements and ziggurat-style design patterns.
Completed in 1937 by architects Shreve, Lamb & Harmon, the structure served as headquarters for Durham Bank & Trust Company during the Great Depression era.
