The Bond Building is an historic office building located at 1400 New York Avenue, N.W., in downtown Washington, D.C. It was designed by architect George S. Cooper in 1901. The building was constructed by Charles Henry Bond, for an estimated $300,000.[3] A developer bought the building in 1979, and applied for a demolition permit.

In 1980, D.C. Superior Court Judge William E. Stewart, Jr. blocked demolition in 1980. In 1983, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
