The Baldwin Building is a site on the National Register of Historic Places located in Fromberg, Montana. It was added to the Register on January 28, 1993.

The original owner, C.J. Baldwin, had both a buggy implement dealership and lumber company under two false fronts.[2] In 1919 he began using the building for a Ford dealership. In 1936 the building was purchased by two mechanics and became a gas station and garage.[2] At this time a new store front was constructed and both the buildings joined under a single false-front.
