The Burnaugh Building, at 107 N. River St. in Enterprise, Oregon, was built during 1916–17 in Early Commercial style. It was commissioned by S. L. Burnaugh for renting; Burnaugh served as mayor of Enterprise in the year following its construction. It has served as a post office, a meeting hall, as a businessplace, and as a multiple dwelling. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1][2]

It is one of six buildings in Enterprise that was built of "Bowlby stone", a local tuffaceous rock; the Wallowa County Courthouse and the Record-Chieftain's plant building are the only other two surviving of the six.[2]
