The Dayton Daily News Building is an historic structure located at the corner of 4th and Ludlow Streets in Dayton, Ohio. It was designed by architect Albert Pretzinger for the Dayton Daily News. After being turned down for a bank loan to start the paper, founder James M. Cox asked Pretzinger to "build him a damn bank" so it was modeled after the Knickerbocker Trust building.[2]
On November 30, 1978, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. In April, 2007, the newspaper's editorial and business offices moved to the former NCR Building 31 at 1611 S. Main St. on Dayton's south side, near the University of Dayton campus.
