Book excerpt: The Herring Hotel, also known as the Herring Cottage, The Herring, Hotel Herring, The Graham House Hotel, is a historic building located in Belle Plaine, Iowa, United States. Built in 1900, the American Craftsman style frame building replaced an earlier hotel with the same name that had been destroyed in a massive fire that destroyed most of the central business district in 1894. Will Herring built his namesake hotel and he had owned the previous hotel, which had been built by his father-in-law William Blossom as the Tremont House. The building was designed by Cedar Rapids architect Charles A. Dieman, and constructed by local contractor James Park. The hotel served passengers from the Chicago and North Western Railroad depot two blocks away. Motorists on the Lincoln Highway, which was routed by the hotel, would also use the hotel after it was established in 1913. This hotel was also the victim of a fire in 1914, which destroyed the attic and roof. The third floor was added during the renovations. Herring built a service station next door in 1919, making this a one-stop roadside business.[2] Additions were made to the station later on to house his son Edward's car dealership. U.S. Route 30 was routed along the Lincoln Highway in 1926, and motorist from that highway continued to stay here until 1937 when the highway was routed north of town. An indoor garage that could house up to thirty autos was added in 1927. Will Herring, who was known for his exceptional service,[2] died in 1937. The faux brick veneer was added to the building sometime in the 1940s to early 1950s. The Herring family continued to own the hotel until 1960, although others ran it. The building, which is still a hotel, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008"--Wikipedia, 8 September 2022.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Departing from conventional genres of architectural writing, Roger Connah presents an original and wry reflection on the fickle but exciting role that language, semantics, and philosophy have played this century in relation to architecture. Welcome to The Hotel Architecture is a five-part "anti-epic" poem on the culture of architecture - its tribes and inventions, the spectacular and vernacular, and the processes through which names and movements are secured, erased, forgotten, and manipulated.
Download or read book Hotel Life written by Caroline Field Levander and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2015-04-27 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a hotel? As Caroline Field Levander and Matthew Pratt Guterl show us in this thought-provoking book, even though hotels are everywhere around us, we rarely consider their essential role in our modern existence and how they help frame our sense of who and what we are. They are, in fact, as centrally important as other powerful places like prisons, hospitals, or universities. More than simply structures made of steel, concrete, and glass, hotels are social and political institutions that we invest with overlapping and contradictory meaning. These alluring places uniquely capture the realities of our world, where the lines between public and private, labor and leisure, fortune and failure, desire and despair are regularly blurred. Guiding readers through the story of hotels as places of troublesome possibility, as mazelike physical buildings, as inspirational touchstones for art and literature, and as unsettling, even disturbing, backdrops for the drama of everyday life, Levander and Guterl ensure that we will never think about this seemingly ordinary place in the same way again.

Book excerpt: Many people are surprised to learn that the city of Amarillo was actually founded twice. Originally settled by J. T. Berry in April 1887 and known as Oneida, the site of the town was located on such low ground that many residents feared it was susceptible to flooding. In 1888, one concerned resident named Henry B. Sanborn began buying land a mile east of the site as a potential place to relocate the town. In 1889, the towns fears came to fruition when heavy rains flooded the original town site, prompting residents to move to Sanborns new location. The town went on to become one of the worlds busiest cattle shipping points in the late 1890s, causing its population to grow significantly. Today Amarillo is the largest city in the Texas Panhandle, and its economy continues to thrive on cattle, along with agriculture, oil, and natural gas.
