The Springer Building is a historic building in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was built during 1929–30 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]

It was designed by the Springer Transfer Company, including architect Miles Brittelle, Sr. Another architect, George M. Williamson, designed a different office and storage facility for the Springer Transfer Company, with access to the Santa Fe railway line.[3]

The architect took advantage of massing and structure required to give the Springer Building, with slight adjustments, a Mayan architecture motif.[3]
