Step back in time to the golden age of downtown Lexington with this charming vintage postcard featuring the grand Lafayette Hotel. Opened in 1920, the Lafayette stood proudly as the city’s only fireproof hotel and offered luxurious accommodations with 300 rooms, each with its own private bath—a true marvel of modern comfort in its day. Located near the bustling Phoenix Hotel, it quickly became a hub of elegance, hosting travelers, socialites, and dignitaries. Though the hotel closed its doors in 1963, its striking architecture still graces the city as the LFUCG Government Center, preserving the legacy of Lexington’s glamorous past.
This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
