Though the plaque on this building names it the Hunt Building, it is apparently a replacement for that building and built after 1906. This building is the eighth on the list of fifteen contributing buildings in the Sandpoint Historic District.

Hunt Building
Built sometime between 1906 and 1909, this two-story brick building replaced the 1906 Hunt Building, which was identical in size and design to the Star Market building that adjoins to the south. These twin buildings can be seen in early photographs, and the north sidewall or firewall still remains. The simple design of the present structure includes four evenly spaced window joined by a continuous sill, rusticated cast-stone quoins around the windows and up the walls, and a decorative brick band below the metal cornice at the roofline. The store has been renovated in recent years with an historical theme to include awnings, wooden panels beneath first-story windows, and new wooden signage.
