San Juan Hotel

[1] The second floor was a favorite spot to view hangings at the Orange County Jail.

This annexed sections included restaurants, a barber shop, a laundromat, a pharmacy, as well as an office used by Braxton Beacham.

There were tunnels connecting the Beacham Theatre to the additions to the San Juan and Angebilt hotels.

Despite this, the hotel was planned to be demolished in the future, and holes were cut in the upper floors in preparation for the demolition.

On January 2, 1979 the top three stories of the original 1885 wing, which were unoccupied at the time, caught on fire around 5:00 or 6:00 a.m., and there was also a water leak which flooded down into the shops on the 1st floor.
