The building was built in 1928 for the Stimson Realty Company under the direction of the Metropolitan Building Company for $1.1 million by Teufel & Carlson, contractors. Robert C. Reamer was the architect. The building was fully constructed within seven months in 1928, setting a record for a building of its size.[2]

From 1997 to 2012 the ground floor housed Tully's Coffee flagship store on the corner of Fourth Avenue and Union Street.[3] The store was among those closed following Tully's bankruptcy protection filing.[4]

In 2016, it was sold to the Onni Group for $29.6 million.[5]
