The Randerson-Lundell Building stands in Austin, Travis County, Texas. Cornelius Randerson erected the original one-story structure in 1896. It initially served as a grocery, feed, and wagon yard. In 1898, John and Claus Lundell purchased the building. They added a second floor in 1910 to provide overnight lodging for customers. The building remained with the Lundell family until 1926. This structure is a native limestone and brick commercial building, displaying Italianate and Victorian commercial styles. It features simple Classical detailing. The Randerson-Lundell Building was designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1994. The Texas Historical Commission erected its marker that same year. The building reflects Austin's commercial and architectural development during the late 19th century.
