Majestic Building, commercial building in Indianapolis, Indiana

The Majestic Building is a ten-story commercial structure made of brick and limestone with a U-shaped footprint and large semi-circular arches across its facade. Its steel frame construction includes detailed stone ornaments such as acanthus and foliate carvings that face both Pennsylvania and Maryland Streets.

Designed by architect Oscar Bohlen and completed in 1896, this was Indianapolis's first building with a complete steel frame, making it the city's tallest structure at that time. It was constructed after a fire in 1894 destroyed the previous Gas Company offices on the same site.

The building's name comes from its 1895–1896 design, whose semi-circular and voussoir arched openings in brick and limestone give the U-shaped structure its formal front. Citizens Gas & Coke Utility leased four floors as its headquarters until 1956, so for six decades the address was tied to the gas company rather than to its name.

Located at the corner of Pennsylvania and Maryland Streets in downtown Indianapolis, the building is easily accessible on foot with grand entrances facing both streets. Inside you will find offices, dining options, and other businesses open to the public during regular hours.
