Over the years the area occupied by the viaduct has come to be known as Pershing Square. The city once planned to build a plaza named in honor of General John J. Pershing adjacent to the viaduct but the Pershing Square Building was built on that spot instead. Pershing Square Building; Built: 1923; Architects: York & Sawyer. The U-shaped 24 story office building originally contained a basement restaurant, street level shopping, and a second floor banking room.
