The Hartford Times Building is an architecturally significant, early 20th-century Beaux-Arts style building in downtown Hartford, Connecticut, completed in 1920 as the headquarters of the now defunct Hartford Times. The newspaper commissioned architect Donn Barber, who had designed the nearby Travelers Tower and Connecticut State Library and Supreme Court Building, to design a new structure to house its office and newspaper plant. At the time the paper was at the height of its influence with the top circulation in the state in 1917.[1]
