Lewis and Clark Hotel


The Lewis and Clark Hotel in Mandan, North Dakota was built in 1918.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

History

The building was built by Louis B. Hanna who served as Governor of North Dakota. In 1916, he purchased and razed the Inter-Ocean Hotel in downtown Mandan and drew up plans for a new hotel building. The building was designed by Fargo-based architect William J. Gage.
The four story high building is constructed of pressed brick, with white enamel ornamental trimmings. The structure was built as a 120-room hotel with commercial space. Hotel rooms occupy the second, third, and fourth floors of the building. Merchant's National Bank was located in the southeast corner of the building when the hotel first opened.
