Book Description
The Herring Hotel, also known as the Herring Cottage, The Herring, Hotel Herring, The Graham House Hotel, is a historic building located in Belle Plaine, Iowa, United States. Built in 1900, the American Craftsman style frame building replaced an earlier hotel with the same name that had been destroyed in a massive fire that destroyed most of the central business district in 1894. Will Herring built his namesake hotel and he had owned the previous hotel, which had been built by his father-in-law William Blossom as the Tremont House. The building was designed by Cedar Rapids architect Charles A. Dieman, and constructed by local contractor James Park. The hotel served passengers from the Chicago and North Western Railroad depot two blocks away. Motorists on the Lincoln Highway, which was routed by the hotel, would also use the hotel after it was established in 1913. This hotel was also the victim of a fire in 1914, which destroyed the attic and roof. The third floor was added during the renovations. Herring built a service station next door in 1919, making this a one-stop roadside business.[2] Additions were made to the station later on to house his son Edward's car dealership. U.S. Route 30 was routed along the Lincoln Highway in 1926, and motorist from that highway continued to stay here until 1937 when the highway was routed north of town. An indoor garage that could house up to thirty autos was added in 1927. Will Herring, who was known for his exceptional service,[2] died in 1937. The faux brick veneer was added to the building sometime in the 1940s to early 1950s. The Herring family continued to own the hotel until 1960, although others ran it. The building, which is still a hotel, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008"--Wikipedia, 8 September 2022.

Book Description
Departing from conventional genres of architectural writing, Roger Connah presents an original and wry reflection on the fickle but exciting role that language, semantics, and philosophy have played this century in relation to architecture. Welcome to The Hotel Architecture is a five-part "anti-epic" poem on the culture of architecture - its tribes and inventions, the spectacular and vernacular, and the processes through which names and movements are secured, erased, forgotten, and manipulated.
