The Sharon Building, designed by George Kelham, stands on New Montgomery Street facing the Palace Hotel.

The Sharon Building is a Chicago School commercial building that was once filled with the offices of architects. Part of the frontage on New Montgomery serves a facade for a parking garage and is only twenty feet deep. The ground floor is occupied by the House of Shields, a venerable bar and restaurant which contains an ornate bar built for the Palace Hotel but later moved across the street.
