Located
on the NE corner of Park and Lawrence, the Bonneville was
built in 1875 and remodeled around 1926 in the Mission Style.
Colorful mosaic tiles decorated the floor of the small Park
Ave. entryway, and several light wells brightened the interior.
There was no elevator; a wide central stairwell served the
two top floors. A flight of back stairs led down to the parking
lot on the east side. Coal for the large furnace in the basement
was delivered via a chute on the Lawrence St. (south) side
of the building.
This great
view was taken from the City-County (old Federal) Building
by Jeff Sherlock.
