The Ranke Building was built on the site of the original 3-story Ranke Building, built by prominent early brick mason Otto Ranke on the site of his original home in 1891. The new Ranke Building, designed by Lois Svarz, was completed in 1926. It became part of Nordstrom's flagship store in the 1970s which had taken over the entire half of the block and as a result lost most of its elaborate terracotta cladding below the 5th floor.
