The Henry R. Koen Forest Service Building is a historic federal government office building at 605 West Main Street in Russellville, Arkansas. It is two story stone and frame structure, built in 1939 by crews of the Civilian Conservation Corps. The building is distinctive urban adaptation of the Rustic style for which the CCC became well known. Originally built to house both the main offices of the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest and local CCC administrators, it is now used exclusively by the former.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
