Hills Building

Address

 Fayette St.
Syracuse, NY 13202 (map)

Area

 Armory Square
A local example of efforts by architects in the 1920s to adapt Gothic designs to tall buildings.  The Hills building was designed by Melvin King.  The structure is primarily a “Metropolitan” style with its roofline setbacks, but is ornamented with much Gothic design to the point of having an elaborate but stylistically misplaced gargoyle.
