Fort Piqua Hotel is located at 114 W. Main St. It was built in 1890–91 in Late Victorian style. It has also been known as the Plaza Hotel and as the Favorite Hotel.[1]
It was built as "The Plaza Hotel", a 4+1⁄2-story Richardsonian Romanesque-style rock-faced building developed by the partnership of Orr and Statler. It was opened as a hotel in 1892. Its entrance is in the center of its south side, in between commercial storefronts, under a three-story arch.[3]
A major renovation and readaptation of the building was pursued in 2006 with a budget of $18 million for the 80,000 square foot building.[4]
