Koenig Building was a historic building located in downtown Davenport, Iowa, United States. The Italianate style commercial building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1] Augustus Koenig had this building constructed in 1872 for his daughters Pauline and Emma. They operated a millinery and fancy goods shop on the main floor and they lived in the apartments above.[2] In later years the commercial space housed a tavern. The structure has subsequently been torn down and the property is now a surface parking lot.
The Koenig Building was a three-story brick structure. It featured a bracketed cornice with a curved pediment. The round-arch widows on the second and third floors had metal hoods with keystones. The building was typical of the city's Victorian commercial buildings.[2]
