Once owned by the Samis Foundation, it was sold to various LLC owners who would convert it back into a hotel in 2017, currently operating under the name Palihotel.

The permit was issued on February 9 with Matthew Dow being awarded the general contract and by May the building was up 2 floors.

[5] The hotel's lease and all its furnishings and fixtures was sold at public auction on May 6, 1905 though the building itself remained under the ownership of the C.D.

[2] Originally located at the southern edge of Denny Hill, the building was only minorly affected by the regrades beginning in 1908; the slope of Pine Street once met the building's second floor at its northeast corner and the exposed stone wall now visible in the alleyway was once underground.

In 1912 the widening of Pine Street necessitated the demolition and reconstruction of the building's North wall, resulting in the loss of 7 feet of the building's width and the removal of a pair of windows from each floor of the First Avenue façade, resulting in the current asymmetrical appearance.
