Can't find any mention in the thread searcher thing. Thanks. Good post coming, I think.

I have a feeling your post will be on one or both of the photos I just posted, so I'm looking forward to it . . . .
Anyway, the 1888 Sanborn shows the Sunset Hotel already built, with the San Fernando Hotel building. That's as close as I could nail it down. The future Sunset Hotel is at the bottom at the NW corner of Walters and Upper Main (now Ord and North Spring), with the San Fernando directly across Upper Main:
