History
Lewis and Clark Hotel (2009)

The building was built by Louis B. Hanna (1861–1948) who served as Governor of North Dakota (1913–1917). 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 (1891-1965). [3] [4]

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. [5]
