Built in 1846, the Tremont House opened as a hotel run by Loel and Samuel B. Chandler to serve stagecoach traffic on the Maumee Pike (U.S. Route 20). A Bellevue landmark, it has also housed grocery and hardware stores, a pharmacy, and a cigar factory. Its third floor ballroom hosted community events and fraternal organizations such as the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF). The building's west side stands on the western boundary of the Firelands region of the Connecticut Western Reserve. An example of Greek Revival architecture, the Tremont House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.
