It was designed by Alfred B. Mullett and constructed from 1885 to 1887, by John H. Howlett. It was built for the Washington Bureau of the Baltimore Sun.
The nine story building was served by steam elevators, which were replaced by hydraulics in 1909, and electric elevators in 1922. It was altered, in 1904 by B. Stanley Simmons for the American Bank. In 1907, the ninth story was added as the Interstate Commerce Commission Hearing Room.[2]
Tenants included the Interstate Commerce Commission, Woodrow Wilson's law firm, Daniel C. Roper, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.[3]
The Sun Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 27, 1985. Its 2009 property value is $13,931,970.
