Darragh Building

The Darragh Building, also known as the DARCO Building, is a historic commercial building at 1403 East 6th Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a single-story building with an office component and a warehouse component. The office component is built using modern post and beam construction, and has walls composed of concrete panel and floor-to-ceiling windows. Both it and its stairs are set on recessed platforms, giving it the appearance that it is floating. It was built in 1958 to a design by Noland Blass Jr. of Erhart, Eichenbaum, Rauch & Blass, and is a good example of Mid-Century Modern commercial architecture.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.
