Additional Information: | 2017 - Appearance unchanged. Built in 1969, the Wehr Building is four stories tall and displays a rectangular plan. The office building has a flat roof and concrete walls with pebble aggregate. The walls feature horizontal rows of decorative dark brick panels set between small, vertical, rectangular fixed windows in aluminum casings. Windows are flanked by vertical concrete screens and offset on alternating floors, which gives each elevation a zig-zag pattern. The main entrance on the front (north) facade consists of two sets of double glass-and-metal doors flanked by large fixed windows in aluminum casing. The entrance is situated below a flat concrete awning supported by four L-shaped concrete posts. A similar entrance is located on the rear (south) elevation. 2019 - Appearance unchanged. |
