The James Earl Rudder State Office Building is a historic office building in downtown Austin, Texas, USA. Built in 1918, the five-story structure features 18-foot ceilings and terrazzo and marble flooring.[2]
Over time the building has housed the General Land Office, the Department of Agriculture, and the State Highway Department (today the Department of Transportation).[citation needed] Today, the building houses the offices for the Secretary of State.[3]
