The Gilmore Building is a historic commercial building at 326 Front Street in Ketchikan, Alaska. It is a three story masonry building located adjacent to Ketchikan City Hall, and was built in 1926-27 by P. J. Gilmore, Sr. to meet growing demand in the growing community for retail space and hotel rooms. The build is in the shape of a reversed L, whose base lies along Front Street, and includes three commercial storefronts. The upper floors are populated with hotel rooms.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1] It is one of the only buildings in the city to survive from the 1920s.[2]
