Kenyon Building
The Kenyon Building was the first skyscraper in Louisville, Kentucky, United States. Standing six stories tall, the building was located on Fifth Street, between Main and Market Streets. The building was razed in 1974 and would eventually become the site of a much taller skyscraper, the Humana Building.
It was designed in the Chicago school style with Richardsonian Romanesque elements, and opened in 1886. The architect was Mason Maury.
