The Shoop Building is a six-story historic office building in downtown Racine, Wisconsin, constructed in stages between 1893 and 1902 and designed by local architect James Gilbert Chandler. Built in the Richardsonian Romanesque style, it rises prominently at the corner of State Street and Main Street near the Root River, distinguished by its striking contrast of Cream City brick and red sandstone that makes it a notable feature of Racine's skyline. The building is listed in both the National Register of Historic Places and the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
