The Swedish American Telephone Company Building is a historic structure in the Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago. Built in the later 1890s, the factory differs from other industrial buildings of its day because of its ornate facade. It was home to medical supplier Betz & Co. (1895–1905), the Swedish American Telephone Company (1905–1923), and the Denoyer-Geppert Co. (1923–1985).
