Cheney Building

It is located at 942 Main Street, Hartford, Connecticut, and is now on the National Register of Historic Places.

As of 2007, it has been renamed the Richardson Building, and is now a Residence Inn by Marriott, offices, stores, restaurants, and rehearsal space for The Hartford Stage Company.

Its facade is organized into three heavy, horizontal tiers of roughly cut, reddish brownstone punctuated with much lighter Berea limestone trim.

The lowest tier is defined by a series of huge round arches in striking polychrome bands, a motif repeated in the stories above at an increasingly smaller scale.

The building is currently home to a Residence Inn Marriott, a Fastsigns, and a local restaurant named Pietro's Pizza.
