Great building (and great hotel).
14 stories. Built in 1911.
There's some neat folklore around that hotel as well.
It sat dormant for about twenty years and came close to being demolished.
But people rallied to save it and it was finally restored in 2007.
Been going great ever since.

OMG, it's even more glorious than I had imagined!!! Thanks for posting it Peerson, and also much thanks for the other info. This Hotel is the kind of outward style I want to see brought back. I love well-executed contemporary as much as the next guy, but every major city needs a healthy dose of the great classics of the past added to its portfolio, else it becomes too sterile.
