About Belk Mansion: “The largest and most impressive of the Neo-Classical Revival residences built in Monroe during the first two decades to the 20th century, this massive frame house was erected in 1903 for Dr. John Montgomery Belk (1864-1928), a South Carolina native, who with his brother W.H. Belk founded what was to become the largest chain of department stores in the southeast United States.” Linked at bottom
