William H. Allen (1858-1936) was an architect of New Haven, Connecticut who designed hundreds of houses and other buildings.
He and Richard Williams' Beaux Arts architecture design for the New Haven County Courthouse won a design competition over submissions from several well-known architects. The building prominently faces the New Haven Green and contains "several of the city's grandest interior spaces".
