}}Wilder Building is a historic office building located in Rochester, New York. It is an eleven-story steel or iron framed brick clad structure built between 1887 and 1888 in a modified Romanesque style. It is considered Rochester's first modern skyscraper, and is considered to be among the oldest of the early skyscrapers. It was designed by noted Rochester architects Warner & Brockett.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]

The Wilder Building originally contained spires at each corner of its roof, but they have since been removed.[3]

Mail Chute

James Goold Cutler received [https://www.google.com/patents/US284951 U.S. Patent 284,951] on September 11, 1883 for the mail chute. The first one was installed in 1884 in the Elwood Building. Then, during its 1887 construction, Cutler installed a perfected mail chute in the Wilder Building.[4] With the Elwood Building having been demolished in 1965, the Wilder Building's mail chute is currently the oldest surviving one.
