Scope and content
- This view is actually of the New Washington Hotel, at the corner of Second and Stewart. The hotel was developer James Moore's response to losing his Gothic landmark, the original Washington Hotel, to the Denny regrade. (His namesake Moore Theatre is directly behind the hotel.) The New Washington opened in 1908, was purchased by the Catholic church as a retirement home in 1963, added to the National Historic Register and given local Landmark status in 1989--and was turned into low income housing in 1990. It is now called the Josephinum/New Washington Hotel. circa 1910.
