Insurance Company of North America Building
Insurance Company of North America Building, Historic office building in Philadelphia, United States
The sixteen-story brick and stone building occupies an entire block between Arch, Cuthbert, 16th and 17th Streets, featuring a granite base and four-story crown.
Constructed in 1925 for the Insurance Company of North America, the nation's first joint-stock insurance company, the building served as headquarters until 1991.
The building represents the early development of American insurance practices, introducing standardized marine risk assessment and comprehensive homeowner insurance policies.
Located on JFK Plaza near Suburban Station in central Philadelphia, the structure now functions as residential condominiums following its transformation in 2002.
The granite lower level extends 65 feet high, supporting ten uniform stories constructed with brick materials that demonstrate 1920s commercial architecture.
