Belle of Louisville is a steamboat owned and operated by the city of Louisville, Kentucky, and moored at its downtownwharf next to the Riverfront Plaza/Belvedere during its annual operational period. Originally named Idlewild, she was built by James Rees & Sons Company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for the West Memphis Packet Company in 1914 and was first put into service on the Allegheny River. Constructed with an all-steel superstructure and asphalt main deck, the steamboat is said to hold the all-time record in her class for miles traveled, years in operation, and places visited. Belle of Louisvilles offices are aboard Mayor Andrew Broaddus, also a National Historic Landmark.
