Completed in 1895, the Guaranty Building is considered to be one of the masterpieces of famed New York architect Louis Sullivan, the "Father of the Skyscraper." It is indicative of the change in skyscraper construction that occurred in the late 19th century, when the emphasis of the design focuses more the verticality of the building, a choice that Sullivan believed reflected the prosperity of the United States during the period. The building is located in the heart of downtown, just south of the Capitol Building.
