Balch and Lippert, Architects
— 1923 - 1924 —
The Belmont Hotel was built to serve business travelers and legislators, with two dining rooms and "modern facilities," meaning adjacent bathrooms. City boosters hoped that it would encourage conventions to come to Madison. The construction of the eleven-story Belmont spurred the state legislature to pass a law, still on the books, that buildings within one mile of the State Capitol could be no higher than the base of the Capitol dome. The Belmont was sold to the YWCA in 1968.| HM Number | HMS4X |
