About

The Kress Building was built by Max Stool in 1927. It continued to remain open until the late 1990s. Del Rio's Kress Building architecture was an example of the artistic expression that became vital to the store's marketing. The storefont was known across the United States, but the third story of the Kress building was rare. The hardwood floors, iron supporting column and the pressed in ceilings are still intact.
