S.S. Grand
View ~ The Ship Hotel
-
- No attraction along the Lincoln
Highway caught the imagination and attention of motorists like
the Ship Hotel. It served travelers from 1932 til the late 1980s.
Since then, fans kept hoping it would reopen ... while fearing
it might first slide down the mountain.
-
- Our hopes and dreams were
dashed early on October 26, 2001, when the Ship burned down.
Here are some postcards to remember it by....
