The Hogg Building

The Hogg Building, also known as the Hogg Palace, is a building located at 401 Louisiana in Downtown. Built in 1921 by William C. Hogg, developer of River Oaks and son of Jim Hogg, former Governor of Texas, the eight-story art deco building and retained every inch of its distinction with its conversion to loft residences. The building is characterized by a great number of windows, covering much of the outer facing. Ornamentation marks the tops of the seventh and first floors. William Clifford Hogg used the eighth-floor penthouse to manage Hogg Brothers Company and the family's philanthropic projects. The Hogg family used the penthouse as a business office until 1941. In the early 1990s, developer Randall Davis converted the retail and office building into seventy-nine loft apartments.
