Overview
The "E"-shaped Hotel Normandie has stood on the southeast corner of Sutter and Gough Streets since 1907. A four-story, masonry building, the hotel's exterior was "modernized" at some point during the twentieth century, with classical ornamentation taken down.
Building History
The Hotel Normandie was built soon after the devastating San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 04/18/1906. It was loosely patterned on Italian Renaissance palazzi.
It operated as the Hotel Broadmoor by the late twentieth century. In 2019, the Broadmoor, a retirement home, operated in the former Hotel Normandie.
Building Notes
The Hotel Normandie had an "E" shape, with two, thin, light courts admitting sun and air into the rooms of the interior.
In 2019, the Hotel Normandie contained 198 rooms and 132 bathrooms, according to the San Francisco Office of the Assessor. It occupied an 18,905-square-foot lot.
Alteration
A great deal of the exterior Neo-classical ornamentation was removed from the Hotel Normandie by 2019.
