A tall, many-windowed hotel fills the view, red brick above a white base, with flags flying over the entrance and cars parked along the curb in front. The caption names it the Statler Hilton of Cleveland.
The Statler name came to Cleveland with the grand downtown hotel built there in the 1910s. When Hilton purchased the Statler chain in 1954, the house took the combined name, which places this view in the mid-1950s, when such cards were a standard piece of hotel advertising and a common souvenir for travelers.
