Dooner's Hotel
Taylor, Frank H. (Frank Hamilton), 1846-1927
Sketch of a well-kept hotel on a street corner, which only served men.
This hotel, one of the last of its type, in Philadelphia, was opened in 1883, by Thomas Dooner, who had previously conducted a hotel at Chestnut and Eighth Streets. "Dooners" catered to men only and had always a capacity patronage. It has now, at the beginning of 1924, been sold to the Federal Reserve Bank and will soon, it is understood, be replaced by a structure required by the business of that financial corporation. In recent years Dooner's has been conducted by Mr. Thomas F. Dooner, the son of its founder.
