New Era Building is a historic commercial and industrial building located at Lancaster, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It is a three story, "L" shaped brick building in the Queen Anne style. The original section was built in 1890-1891. The rear section was expanded in 1900, 1903, and 1914, to accommodate the growing printing company. It originally housed the New Era newspaper and printing company. A number of notable academic journals and books were printed here between 1893 and 1922, including Popular Science Monthly. When listed in 1983, it was occupied by a Rite Aid drug store.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
