Cannon Building, Greek Revival commercial building in Central Troy Historic District, United States.
The Cannon Building features a 24-bay Flemish bond brick facade with its original storefront and rises five stories in Monument Square.
Alexander Jackson Davis and Ithiel Town designed this structure in 1835, which later received a mansard roof following fires after the Civil War.
The building represents the financial growth of Troy during the 19th century when the city emerged as a major Hudson River commercial center.
The upper floors contain thirty extended-stay hotel units serving visitors to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Russell Sage College.
The Cannon Building stands as the oldest structure on Monument Square, combining Federal and Greek Revival architectural elements with later Victorian modifications.
