"Times Building. Built in 1930, the Times Building is an art deco structure that has terra-cotta eagles above the main entrance, and was the second skyscraper built in Huntsville. Planned with eleven stories, Huntsville Daily Times manager Emory Pierce was fearful that the Hotel Russel Erskine would be taller, so he hastily added another floor."
