The Building at 201 North Market Street is a historic commercial building located at 201 North Market Street in Champaign, Illinois. Built circa 1870, the building has an architecturally significant Italianate commercial design, stylistically matching its neighbor at 203-205 North Market Street. The Italianate style was popular in the United States from the 1850s through the 1880s and was used heavily in both residential and commercial buildings. The two-story building's characteristic Italianate features include its tall, narrow arched windows and a brick entablature below the roof line. The first floor has an original cast iron storefront, a popular decoration for commercial buildings of the era. A limestone sidewalk, possibly the only 19th-century stone sidewalk remaining in Champaign, runs in front of the building.^[2]

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 7, 1997, along with its companion building at 203-205 North Market Street.^[1]
