Summary
| Description |
English: Color postcard with no border and divided back, postmarked possibly reading Jan. 10, 1949. Caption from back: Facing historic Johnson Square, famous for the General Nathaniel Green Monument and Tomb, also for historic Christ Church, established by Dr. Henry Herbert, an English Clergyman in 1733, the year of the founding of the Colony of Georgia. The hotel was built in 1912 by the Newcomb Hotel Company and opened in January of 1913. The builder was listed as Charles McCaul, builders from Philadelphia and the architect as W. L. Stoddart of New York. At ten floors, it was a tall building by Savannah standards. In 1921, due to the popularity of the hotel, an addition of another 100 rooms was added. In 1954, the hotel became the Manger Hotel and operated as such until the 1970's. Its Purple Tree Lounge was a very popular night spot. The building now houses the First City Club of Savannah and business offices. |
