Popular Post cityboi Posted December 27, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) Original O'Henry Hotel in downtown Greensboro built in 1919. The hotel caught on fire and was demolished in 1979. It had 300 rooms and was located where the Bellemeade parking deck is today diagonally across the street from the Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts. Named after Greensboro native William Sydney Porter, a famous American short story writer who used O'Henry as his pen name. He was known for writing The Gift of the Magi. A newer O'Henry Hotel was built at Friendly Shopping Center in the late 1990s. The hotel also included the adjoining 4 story section. The new one is nice but it doesn't have the character the old one had. More of the original hotel after years of aging. The King Cotton Hotel being demolished. The beautiful O'Henry. 300 rooms was considered really big in those days. Winston-Salem's historic hotels were also demolished years ago. The Robert E. Lee Hotel. Hotel Zinzindorf in Winston-Salem. Burned down in 1892. Historic Mcadoo Hotel in downtown Greensboro later called the Benbow House Hotel.
