The ALICO building stands 22 stories tall at the corner of Austin Avenue and 5th Street in the center of beautiful downtown Waco. Once the tallest building in the southwest United States, the ALICO Building symbolizes stability and strength.
Known to be the tallest building West of the Mississippi and South of the Mason-Dixon Line until 1929, the ALICO Building became a symbol of strength that withstood the ravages of weather and time.
The building that was “Set on a rock and built to withstand anything,” proved its worth as a tower of strength during a devastating tornado on May 11, 1953.
