Its address was 236 East Second Street.[1] Lua error in Module:Coordinates at line 489: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value).

The hotel was noted for housing a large population of African Americans, and figured prominently in the alleged attempted assassination of Jimmy Carter in May 1979. The hotel was demolished in 1986 following a lawsuit demanding eviction settlements for the displaced residents,[2] and to prepare for the construction of the Parker Center.[3]
