Building Notes

This six-story Mission Revival Style hotel was designed by John C.W. Austin (1870-1963). The hotel had the quintessential Mission Revival scalloped parapet on two sides and had prominent corner turrets, some round, some pyramidal, that punctuated each corner. A large, two-floor loggia that projected out from the main facade. Entry was gained at the corner of South Olive Street and West 4th Street.

Demolition

The building was razed and has been replaced by a parking lot.
