Roanoke Building, Skyscraper in The Loop, Chicago, United States.

The Roanoke Building rises 37 floors into the Chicago skyline with dark terra cotta facades and Portuguese Gothic architectural details throughout its exterior.

The structure evolved through three construction phases between 1915 and 1925, beginning with 16 floors and expanding to its current height under Holabird & Root's direction.

The building earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007, marking its importance in preserving Chicago's architectural and commercial development.

Located at 11 South LaSalle Street, the former office building now functions as a Residence Inn hotel with 380 rooms and meeting spaces.

Four bronze bells cast by the Meneely Bell Company ring every quarter hour, playing a composition called Samheim across the downtown district.
