Monticello Hotel (Norfolk, Virginia)
Hotel in Norfolk, Virginia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Monticello Hotel was an historic hotel built in 1898 on Monticello Avenue in Norfolk, Virginia.[1] The original hotel was destroyed by a fire on New Year's Day in 1918, a day so cold that the water from the fire equipment froze before it could reach the fire.[2] The hotel was rebuilt in 1919, with two additional stories added, and operated until it was demolished in 1976 as part of Norfolk's ongoing urban renewal project.
