The Building at 126 South Riverview Street is a historic commercial building located in Bellevue, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 20 are commercial buildings. The two-floor structure was built around 1855 to house a retail establishment, but its original use has not been determined.[2] The stone blocks that were used in its construction vary somewhat in shape and size, and they were laid in courses. The rectangular plan structure features three narrow bays, a recessed entrance in the right bay, dressed stone lintels, and a stone storefront. The window openings have been altered. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]
