The Pincus Building, also known as the Zadek Building, is a historic Queen Anne-style commercial building in Mobile, Alabama, United States.[2] Designed by local architect Rudolph Benz, the four-story brick masonry structure was completed in 1891. It initially served as the home of the Zadek Jewelry Company. The original design featured a round tower with a spire on one of the building's exterior corners, which was removed by the 1940s. Furthermore, the architectural details on the first-floor exterior have been simplified. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 1976.[1]
