Constructed in 1905, the Benedum-Trees Building was the long-time headquarters of the oil company owned by entrepreneurs Michael Benedum (1869-1959) and Joseph Trees (1870-1943).
The 19-story building is an excellent example of Neo-classical architecture. This style finds inspiration in antiquity with particular emphasis on the designs of Roman artist Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (80BCE – 15BCE) as envisioned by Italian architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580). Neoclassical architecture emphasizes the wall and maintains separate identities to each of its parts.
Today, the building is managed by Pennsylvania Commercial Real Estate.
