On the 1892 map of St. Louis Park there are sketches of the hotels and industries in the town. One of these is simply labeled “Hotel at St. Louis Park.” (first sketch below), completed 1892. We find the same building in a sketch made by the architect, Henry W. Jones. On that sketch it is called St. Louis Park Hotel. The St. Louis Park Historical Society does not have a photograph of this hotel or any information about whether it really existed, and if so, where it was located. It appears to be quite elegant, and it is hard to understand how it may have disappeared without a trace.
