Brighton Beach Hotel Black and White Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Description
Razed 1921; Hotel Brighton (later the Brighton Beach Hotel) in 1878. Also made of wood, the hotel was 460 feet long and several stories high, with accommodations for upwards of 5,000 guests. However, ten years later, the beach in front of the hotel would become so badly eroded that the ocean waves would lap up against the hotel's façade. To save it from destruction, the hotel was placed atop 120 railcars and moved inland 500 to 600 feet. This massive job only took three months to complete, meaning the hotel was open for business again in the summer of 1888. Color: Black and white Available sizes: 12 x 18, 20 x 30, 16 x 24, 24 x 36 or 28 x 42 Indoor gallery wrapped canvas Style: Cityscapes, photography
