**HISTORY**
Built in 1888, the Mason & Hoge building has its ties to two prominent business and construction leaders at the time: C.R. Mason and S. French Hoge. Today, known as Mason & Hanger, it is the oldest American Architectural Engineering firm and has been renowned for its work on the Virginia Railroad, the Chicago River Reversal, the Kentucky River Lock & Dam, the New York Lincoln Tunnel, and the Nevada Nuclear Weapons Test Site (to name a few).
