Black Building, Art Moderne office building in Downtown Fargo, United States

The Black Building stands eight stories tall at 114 Broadway with an Indiana limestone façade contrasting the surrounding brick architecture.

George Mumford Black commissioned the construction of this building in 1931, during the Great Depression, demonstrating his commitment to Fargo's development.

The building housed WDAY radio station, which ended each broadcast with a signature announcement mentioning its location in the Black Building.

Recent renovations have added luxury condos on the upper floors, with three bedrooms and two underground parking spaces per unit.

A time capsule placed in the northeast cornerstone in 1934 contains items representing daily life in North Dakota.
