Salvation Army Headquarters, Art Deco headquarters in Saint Paul, US.
The Salvation Army Headquarters was an administrative building in Art Deco style located in Saint Paul. The structure displayed cream-colored brick, geometric patterns, and dark-framed windows that reflected the design characteristics of that era.
The building was designed in 1931 by architect Albert C. Fehlow during the rise of Art Deco architecture in Saint Paul. After 1958, Saint Joseph's Hospital used the building for administration and prenatal services until it was demolished in 1998.
The building served multiple community functions, including a prenatal clinic and administrative offices for Saint Joseph's Hospital after 1958.
The building no longer exists today and can only be studied through historical photographs and archival materials. Information about its original location is available in Saint Paul's local collections and archives.
The entrance featured a ziggurat pattern made from glazed architectural terra-cotta, which set the building apart from other structures of the time. This decorative element was a distinctive part of Fehlow's design approach.
