Kress Building, Moderne architecture building in Fort Worth, Texas.
The Kress Building stands as a five-story structure with Meso-American design elements and Italian marble floors in downtown Fort Worth.
Constructed in 1936 during the Great Depression, the building served as a five-and-dime store until 1960 under the S.H. Kress company.
The building features stylized Mayan architectural elements above upper windows, combining American commercial design with pre-Columbian influences.
The building underwent conversion into residential units in 2016 while maintaining its status on the National Register of Historic Places.
The structure contained a colony of Mexican free-tailed bats during its 2005 renovation, requiring special removal procedures before work could continue.
