Gage Hotel

The Gage Hotel is a two-story brick structure on a concrete foundation, completed April 1927 and designed by Trost & Trost. It offered 15 guest rooms, 5 on the first floor and the remaining on the second when opened; it has 45 now. It was built in an eclectic Spanish Revival/Mission Revival design, according to the Gage Hotel website, although it lacks many of the Mission attributes we would expect, especially from a Trost design. Ponsford & Sons Construction was the contractor.The building stands in a beautifully restored condition today.
