1910

Construction of the Alico Building

The Alico Building was completed in 1910 by the architectural firm Sanguinet & Staats for the Amicable Life Insurance Company. At 22 stories, it was the tallest building west of the Mississippi River and south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Built with cutting-edge technology for its time, the building featured its own power plant, artesian well, and advanced water and drainage systems.

The Waco Tornado

On May 11, 1953, an F-5 tornado struck Waco, causing widespread destruction and becoming the deadliest tornado in Texas history. The Alico Building swayed in the intense winds but remained structurally sound, becoming a critical crisis center for rescue and recovery operations. Its survival during this disaster solidified its status as a symbol of resilience in the heart of Waco.
