  • The Restoration of the West Baden Springs Hotel
    Masterpiece of the Midwest ® By Graeme Sharpe The Restoration of the West Baden Springs Hotel ew people realize that a hotel built in 1902 near French Lick, Indi- By Graeme Sharpe F ana once held the title of “World’s Copyright Largest Dome”, and that it was the largest dome in the United States until the Astro- dome was built in 1965. In fact, the West Baden Springs hotel has spent the last 75 years in obscurity, and only the dedicated work of Indiana preservationists saved this landmark hotel from ruin. Thanks to their efforts, this important structure has been preserved, restored to its original condi- tion, and put back into service as a first- class hotel (Figure 1 above). When the West Baden Springs Hotel opened in 1902, industry journals immediately recognized it as an architectural and engineering marvel, naming the hotel the “Eighth Wonder of the World”. It con- tained about 500 guest rooms arranged in a magazinecircular plan and boasted a steel and glass dome spanning 200 feetS above a six-storyT atrium (FigureR 2). The U C T U R E resort also included a smaller domed entry lobby, a natatorium, a powerplant and utility building, and First Floor Plan an attached ballroom. (see sidebar, page 40) The hotel was enormously successful during the affluent era of the roaring 20’s. However, it fell on hard times after the collapse of the stock market in 1929. The hotel business failed and the West Baden Springs Hotel closed in 1932. New ownership followed as the hotel became a Jesuit seminary from 1934-1964 and, later, a university campus, the Northwood Institute, from 1966- 1983.
