Hotel Albion, established in 1906, was a hotel and historic building in Portland, Oregon, in the United States. It was best known for housing the Lotus Café, which occupied the ground floor from 1924[1][2] until its closure in August 2016. The hotel was renamed the Lotus Hotel in the 1930s or 1940s, but it closed in 1976 as a result of fire safety violations.[3]
Designs for a 10-story office building that proposed to be constructed on the site were approved by the Portland Design Commission, a city-appointed advisory panel, in early July 2016.[4] The plans called for demolition of the Hotel Albion, and Ankrom Moisan Architects submitted a demolition permit to the city in mid-July 2016.[4] The Auditorium and Music Hall, located directly adjacent to the former hotel, was not proposed for demolition.[4]
Demolition began on June 28, 2018,[5] and was largely completed by mid-July.[6]
