The Kirk Johnson Building is a historic commercial building located in Lancaster, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It was designed by noted Lancaster architect C. Emlen Urban and built in 1911–1912. It is a four-story, narrow, steel frame structure clad in white tile and cut stone in the Beaux-Arts style. This section of the Kirk Johnson Building measures 16 feet wide and features a copper-clad mansard roof. The original French-style display windows were restored in 1979–1980. It was built to house the Kirk Johnson music store.[2]
