National Old Line Insurance Company Building

The National Old Line Insurance Company Building is a historic office building at 501 Woodlane Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a modern six-story structure of concrete and steel, occupying much of the city block bounded by Woodlane, Capitol, Sixth, and Victory Streets. It is directly across Woodlane Street from the Arkansas State Capitol, and presently houses state offices. It was designed by Arkansas architect Yandell Johnson and built in 1953–54, with an addition in 1964–54. The exterior is characterized by alternating horizontal bands of windows and limestone panels, which encircle the structure. It is regarded as one of the best examples in the state of the International style of architecture.[2]
