The Model Tobacco Factory is a historic industrial complex in Richmond, Virginia, built beginning in 1938 by the Chicago architecture firm Schmidt, Garden and Erikson. The centerpiece is a prominent six-story rectangular factory building executed in the Art Deco style, distinguished by a striking Moderne "sky sign" that crowns its north elevation. The complex comprises ten contributing structures and represents one of Richmond's significant Art Deco ensembles. Recognized as a Virginia Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019, the site underwent redevelopment as an apartment complex as of 2021.
