Foster Hotel

Foster Hotel, now Lyndon Musolf Manor, 1910

The Foster Hotel sign is probably on the endangered list. Built in 1910 as the working class Foster Hotel, the building is currently undergoing seismic and cosmetic upgrades. The side pictured here is under plastic wrap right now; once it's removed will the sign still be there?

The Foster Hotel was renamed Lyndon Musolf Manor in 1998 in honor of Innovative Housing Inc.'s founding Board President. You can see this sign, or what's left of it, from NW 3rd and Everett.
