SS Grand View Point Hotel Unidentified!

SS Grand View Point Hotel

SS Grand View Point Hotel

I inherited a box of negatives from my mother, Eva Wickiser Bennett of Kirkersville, Ohio. Upon developing them I found this one of the SS Grand View Point Hotel, believed to have been taken between 1935-1940, but it may have been earlier. I had no idea what it was or where it was located so it went unidentifed for at least a decade. I emailed it to quite a few people trying to identify it when a cousin found it on the Internet.

Locally known as Ship Hotel

Hello Rickie,

Thank you so much for sharing your old photo of the SS Grand View Point Hotel, also known by the local people as the Ship Hotel. Looking at it brings back so many wonderful memories of my visits there as a child in the mid 50s. The view was just unbelievable.
