Polly Rosenbaum Building, Moorish Revival building in Phoenix, Arizona.

The Polly Rosenbaum Building features arched windows, intricate tile work, and architectural elements reflecting North African and Spanish influences throughout its 18,000 square feet structure.

The structure, completed in 1921 by Clinton Campbell under the design of Lescher & Mahoney, initially served as the El Zaribah Shrine Auditorium for local Shriners events.

The building housed the Arizona Mining and Mineral Museum, presenting collections that documented the state's geological and mining development through educational displays.

Located at the intersection of 15th Avenue and Washington Street in Phoenix, the building received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.

The structure changed its name to honor Polly Rosenbaum, who advocated for the Department of Mines and Mineral Resources throughout her career in Arizona.
