The Harlan and Hollingsworth Office Building is a historic office building located in Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware. It was completed in 1912, and stands on the corner of West St. and the Wilmington Rail Viaduct. It is a three-story, detached, rectangular brick-faced building with two small rear wings in the Colonial Revival style. It features two large, decorated copper-faced bay windows projecting from each face of the right corner of the second story.{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=79000634}} |title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Harlan and Hollingsworth Office Building |author=Jean Athan |date=November 1978}} and {{NRHP url|id=79000634|title=Accompanying eight photos|photos=y}}
By 1910, existing office facilities at the Harlan Plant of Bethlehem Steel (formerly Harlan and Hollingsworth) had become inadequate, and work started on a new office building. It survived the closing of the Harlan Plant in 1944, and once housed laboratories for Gates Engineering Company. The building was purchased by 100 South West Street Associates in 1991 and restored.{{cite book | title=Wilmington's Waterfront | last1=Thompson | first1=Priscilla M. | last2=O'Byrne | first2=Sally | publisher=Arcadia Publishing |location=Great Britain | year=1999 | isbn=0-7385-0304-5}}
