SECOND AND THIRD FLOORS
Some of the pictures which we will post here we are certain which floor they were taken on and will so identify them. Others, the floor is uncertain. In many instances the second and third floors pretty much resembled each other.
The owner at the time this picture was taken, former owner now, Ray Trevelline. This would be on the second floor. The master plan in recent years had been to break up the 120 or so small hotel rooms and in their place to make several apartments on the 2nd and 3rd floors of various sizes. That is why the pictures in this section look like it was a war zone. Picture courtesy of Terry O'Hara.
This is on the second floor. YOu would not realize it from the street but the hotel has a open space in the center. The open space begins at the second floor level.
As you look at these pictures you can see where the original walls used to be by the marks on the plaster walls and ceilings.
As is the case in all of the buildings we have photographed that were built in the late 1800's and early 1900's the wood and woodwork was superb. Picture courtesy of Terry O'Hara.

By first floor it was meaning the 2nd floor. There were no hotel rooms on the ground floor of the hotel.
