Designed by architect Robert Merrell, the Art Deco structure was opened as a hotel on October 20, 1931.

[3] Although the hotel closed in 1983, Developer Stephen Crozier launched an extensive renovation, announcing that he would build 31 loft-style apartments in the Art Deco building, as well as creating some 8,000 square feet of commercial space.

The developer also wanted to build two separate structures that will house an additional 59 units.

Groundbreaking started September 30, 2011 and the construction project became the Hotel Clovis Lofts.
