  • City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings
    121 THEME: COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT BETWEEN THE WARS (1919-1941) Commercial buildings in Palm Springs, c. 1925. Source: Los Angeles Public Library. In the years following World War I, Palm Springs was transformed from a health resort for respiratory patients into an exclusive winter resort for the wealthy. Several resort hotels were constructed in the 1920s and 1930s, cementing Palm Springs’ reputation as a first-class resort community. Commercial development during this period included facilities that catered to the tourist and seasonal community, along with a growing number of commercial establishments to serve the permanent residents. Throughout the inter-war years Palm Canyon Drive (until 1930, Main Avenue) remained the primary commercial thoroughfare in Palm Springs, growing north and, to a lesser degree, south from the village’s historic center at Tahquitz Canyon Way (formerly Spring Street). In an era when architecture was dominated by traditional styles, certain styles were considered appropriate for specific uses: Gothic, for example, was for churches, Beaux Arts and Classical was commonly used for business and civic buildings. In the desert environment of Palm Springs a simplified, rustic interpretation of the popular Spanish Colonial Revival style and traditional southwestern adobe, hacienda, and wood ranch vernacular types were believed to be the best styles and types, both for residences and commercial buildings. Palm Springs’ SCREENCHECK DRAFT– OCTOBER 13, 2015 City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP 122 Desert Inn was an example of this, and later the larger El Mirador Hotel reflected an even more elaborate use of Spanish-derived styles.

    50 Ways Vegas Has Changed Since Frommer’s 1998 vegasbright.com/2017/03/22/50-ways-vegas-has-changed-since-frommers-1998/ By ShortArmsDeepPockets 3/22/2017 ShortArmsDeepPockets explores 50 Ways Vegas Has Changed since 1998. As I sat around daydreaming about my upcoming Vegas trip (#21 and counting), I got to reminiscing about my first trip. Back in 1999, I had picked up a discounted copy of Frommer’s 1998 travel guide for Las Vegas. It was slightly out of date by the time we traveled 18 months after its publishing date. Fast forward 18 years and that out-of-date guide is nothing short of a time machine! I dug it up out of storage and, within a few pages, realized I had struck historical and nostalgia gold. One could write an entire book about all the things that are different about Vegas from 1998 until today, but I tried to trim it to the top 50 changes. REST IN PEACE Some of the individuals mentioned in the Guide have passed into the Great Beyond. Noteworthy passings include: 50. Debbie Reynolds: In 1998, Debbie Reynolds was quite prominent on the Las Vegas scene, as subsequent entries will demonstrate. We lost Debbie in 2016, a day after the passing of her daughter Carrie Fisher. 49 Jackie Gaughan: Las Vegas icon Jackie Gaughan was best known for his ownership of the Plaza back in 1998 (“Jackie Gaughan’s Plaza”); however, over his 64-year career in the gaming industry he also owned the El Cortez, Gold Spike, Las Vegas Club, and other properties Downtown.

  • THE LAST SPIKE IS DRIVEN! the PACIFIC RAILROAD IS COMPLETED! II the POINT of JUNCTION IS 1,086 MILES WEST of the MISSOURI RIVER, and 690 EAST of Vi SACRAMENTO CITY
    ATIONAL GOLDEN SPIKE CENTENNIAL COMMISSION OFFICIAL PUBLICATION MBPPP GOLDEN SP KE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION COMMISSION "What is past is prologue. ..." Shakespeare's words epitomize the spirit of the nation's railroads as they look to the challenges of the future while celebrating the centennial of an achievement that still stands as one of the great milestones in American history. That event was the completion of the first transcontinental railway system with the Driving of the Golden Spike at Promontory, Utah, on May 10, 1869. It was hailed at the time as an impossible dream come true. And, indeed, it was. Its significance was summarized by the late President John F. Kennedy when he said: "We need not read deeply into the history of the United States to become aware of the great and vital role which the railroads have played in the opening up and developing of this great nation. As our frontier moved westward, it was the railroads that bore the great tide of America to areas of new opportunities and new hopes." The railroad industry is justly proud of its past and its contribution to the growth, development and economic might of America. But, again, what's past is prologue. Railroadmen see vast changes occurring in their industry. Today — a hundred years from Promontory — the Iron Horse has lost most of his passen­ ger train glamour. But he's still the workhorse of the transportation stable, hauling almost as much freight as all the newer modes combined. New all-time freight records in 1968 are a significant keynote to the future in railroading.
