Building Notes

The Hotel Leo was one of a number of small hotels occupying this part of the Tenderloin neighborhood. The Hotel Leo stood on tall foundations, and Georgian or Colonial Revival Styling. Clad in tan brick, the four-story building had two belt courses that marked transition points between the basement and first floor, and the first and second. Entry was gained through the center of the building, under an elaborate swans-neck broken pediment. The entryway was guarded by an ornamental wrought-iron gate. On either side of the main entry, were two pairs of triplet, double-hung windows. Edges of the front facade were marked by quoins. The second through fourth floors had identical fenestrations, consisting of two double-hung windows in the center, balanced by pairs of double-hung openings on either end. A fire escape snaked down the front of the building above the main entry. Each window on these floors was trabeated and picked out with contrasting lintels and keystones. The roofline was crowned with an entablature ornamented by decorative brackets and consoles (on each end).

In 2017, the Hotel Leo/Hotel Kinney had a taxable valuation of $874,024.
