Galveston News Building, 2108 Mechanic St Galveston, Galveston County, TX

The Galveston News is Texas` oldest surviving newspaper. This building was erected in 1883 and is locally believed to be the first structure designed expressly for the production of a newspaper. The architect, Nicholas Clayton, was probably the most notable 19th century Texas architect. Architecturally, the building is a good example of the Neo-Renaissance style in vogue at the time.
