Winston-Salem: The Cardinal hotel
Designed by Shreve, Lamb, & Harmon, with metal sculptural work by the famed German artist Oscar B. Bach, and interiors by the Rambusch Decorating Company (same company that worked on many of the amazing theatres in NYC and the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel). Yes, it's a work of Art Deco art! This building won every national design award from 1929 and became the model for the Empire State Building, with the architects modifying and scaling-up this design in just two weeks. While other buildings make similar claims, this is the only building with signed proof from the Empire State Building to back its claim and that proof is on display, as you enter the hotel bar & restaurant. This 23-storey building was the tallest in North Carolina from 1929 until the 30-storey glass box across the street was built in 1965.

The ceiling is hand-carved woodwork with gold and silver detailing from a European artist:

The ceiling above did have additional Art Deco silver rings that were removed in renovation.

I can't remember the name of the artist who worked on these hand-carved wood ceilings, with real gold and silver accents?

Metalwork from famed German artist Oscar B. Bach:

Notice there are carved images in the stonework! WOW!

Again, this building is a work of Art Deco art!

A look at the restaurant and bar, by Brooklyn's CRÈME Jun Aizaki Architecture & Design:

The Father of the Empire State Building:

Yes, they do have proof and it makes this luxury boutique hotel a tourist attraction for ESB fans:
