The Main Building, designed by Chicago architects Patton & Fisher, was completed in 1893. This significant City of Chicago Landmark building was designed in 1891 for the newly founded Armour Institute of Technology to house classrooms and offices. The building's Romanesque Revival style exterior consists of rough-cut sandstone base, red brick and terra cotta upper levels, large arched windows, and multi-hipped roof.
