The Belmont Building (1912) is an eight story office building on the corner of Humboldt and Government Streets on the southern boundary of the commercial core of the Old Town District.
Designed by Hoult Horton and Paul Phillips, it was originally intended to open as an eight story hotel but plans were changed to complete it as an office building with ground floor retail frontages. The austere and restrained classical revival style popular for commercial buildings of the Edwardian era was used and some Art Nouveau motifs.
