The Building at 14–16 Pearson Street was a historic residential building located in the Near North Side neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. Lumber salesman Edwin S. Hartwell had the building built in 1885 as a side venture into real estate. Architect Julius H. Huber designed the building, which was an unusual example of a Queen Anne-inspired brick building. The building's facade featured two bays topped with dormers; the more ornate western bay included corbelling, hipped roofs over the windows, and a metal pinnacle atop its dormer. The second floors of both bays included decorative panels, one featuring a man's head and one featuring a woman's. The building was topped by a mansard roof.[2]
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 8, 1980.[1] Loyola University Chicago's Schreiber Center now occupies the site of the building.[3]
