Luhrs Tower, Art Deco skyscraper in Downtown Phoenix, United States

The Luhrs Tower stands 185 feet tall with 14 stories, featuring symmetrical setbacks at the 8th and 11th floors of its brick structure.

George Luhrs Jr., son of a Phoenix City Council member, developed this office building in 1929 with construction costs reaching 400,000 dollars.

The architectural firm Trost & Trost incorporated design elements from Eliel Saarinen's Tribune Tower while maintaining Southwestern influences in the structure.

The building sits at the intersection of First Avenue and Jefferson Street, offering office spaces with modern amenities in a historical setting.

The tower made an appearance in Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film Psycho, marking its presence in cinematic history.
