The facade of the original Hillman Hospital/Clinic is still there attached to the medical school, I have a photo somebody took for me if you want to see it, also going up I-65, you get off 8th ave S, go up to 18th or 19th, there is a hotel, and yu can walk a bloc or so to the medical school, I went inside the front door and apparently the little lobby is still there and just joins the UAB medical school. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 22, 2006 9:44 AM Subject: [ALJEFFER] Hillman Hotel |I think the original Hillman Hotel information was lost in all the chat. | Here is the information online, if it hasn't already been published: | _http://bplonline.cdmhost.com/cdm4/results.php?CISOOP1=any&CISOFIELD1=CISOSEARCHALL&CISO | ROOT=/p4017coll6&CISOBOX1=Hotel_ | (http://bplonline.cdmhost.com/cdm4/results.php?CISOOP1=any&CISOFIELD1=CISOSEARCHALL&CISOROOT=/p4017coll6&CISOBOX1=Hotel) | It says the Hillman was at 312-322 North 9th Street. So that was definitely | not the Hillman where your grandmother died. | | That's a really interesting page, with information about several hotels in | downtown Birmingham and a letter describing a trip in Alabama. There are a | number of references to black businesses there too. There is a description of a | hotel at East Lake. | | Rae Williams | www.grannyandpopacaldwell.com | | ------------------------------- | To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
