The R. H. Stearns Building at 140 Tremont Street in Boston was built in 1909 for the businessman R. H. Stearns and his company and was the home of the R. H. Stearns department store until its demise.
The Stearns store had been in many locations in Boston before finally settling in its new building and headquarters at 140 Tremont Street.
Since 1886 Stearns & Co. occupied and leased a re-modeled building on the site of the old Boston Masonic Temple, until it was completely torn down and the new R.H. Stearns building put up in 1908.
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places as R. H. Stearns House in 1980.
