I thought the Madison (formerly Commodore Maury) was mid-block and not on a corner. Wish someone had a map of Granby street pinpointing these old hotels!
When the Maury was renamed The Madison it was an up-grade attempt, and for at least a while was considered quite stylish.
The Hotel Southland is located on the corner of Granby and E. Freemason. I have a photo of that street from circa 1917 ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/31410842@N08/2934212505/) and an updated photo from 2008 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/31410842@N08/2935016680/). The hotel now appears to be under serious renovation.
The Madison hotel is mid-block on E. Freemason between Granby and Monticello Ave. It appeared to be closed.

I also have a photo circa 1917 of the Epworth United Methodist Church on W. Freemason St. (
) as well as the current view (
) - not much different. Does anyone know where this house (or inn or school) is located? http://www.flickr.com/photos/31410842@N08/2934212475/ I'm reasonably certain it was in Norfolk, VA. Thanks!
