English: The first Wilmington NC “Custom’s House” was destroyed in a waterfront fire in 1840. It was replaced by a second "Custom’s House" which lasted until being demolished in 1915. The third "Custom’s House/United States Courthouse" was designed by James A Wetmore in a classical revival style. The three-story building on the Cape Fear River waterfront was completed in 1919 and stretches a full block in length. The building was renamed the Alton Lennon Federal Office Building in 1976 after a former US Congressman from Wilmington. It is currently the US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina.
