NYFE Summary

This hotel offered rooms for both short stays and longer-term residents as the neighborhood’s lodging trade expanded. Its later name, Hotel Grand Union, outlasted several changes in ownership and management.

Two rows of projecting windows rise through the red-brick front. Pale stone frames the windows and the entrance below a broad cornice. Metal-clad dormers project from the steep roof above.
