Fountain Hotel
The Fountain Hotel is a historic former hotel in downtown St. Marys, Ohio, United States. Built in 1889 in a mixture of the Queen Anne and Victorian architectural styles, the hotel building sits in the 100 block of West Spring Street.〔
Also known as the "Fort Barbee Hotel,"〔 the Fountain Hotel is a brick building that is built on a foundation of sandstone and covered with an asphalt roof.〔(Fountain Hotel, The ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2010-08-06.〕 On the first story, the facade is divided into multiple storefronts,〔(An Emergency Resolution Authorizing a Loan to the Community Improvement Corporation of the City of St. Marys for Fort Barbee Project ), St. Marys, 2010. Accessed 2010-08-06.〕 but the rest of the hotel has been converted into housing for low-income individuals aged fifty-five or older. Conversion to its present format was carried out by the Muskingum Development Corporation in the 1990s, at a cost of $2 million to $3 million; aid was provided by the Minster State Bank, which offered reduced interest rates to the redevelopers.〔(Community Reinvestment Act Performance Evaluation: Minster State Bank ), Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, 1997-12-15, 8. Accessed 2010-08-06.〕
Surrounding the Fountain Hotel are several other important community locations, such as the municipal building, the Buckeye Trail route along the Miami and Erie Canal, and a community park. Adjacent to the hotel is a small spring; once tapped to provide water for Fort St. Marys, which once occupied the location of the city's downtown, the spring was later converted into a fountain that became the hotel's namesake.〔Pond, Robert J. ''(Follow the Blue Blazes: A Guide to Hiking Ohio's Buckeye Trail )''. Columbus: Ohio State UP, 2003, 129.〕
In 1997, the Fountain Hotel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔 Key to this designation was its place in local history and commerce, as it once played the role of a hotel, specialty store, and restaurant.〔 Two other properties in St. Marys are listed on the Register: the Dr. Issac Elmer Williams House and Office, built in 1903,〔 and the former Holy Rosary Catholic Church, which was destroyed one year before it was placed on the Register.〔〔Shuffelton, Frank B. "Holy Rosary Catholic Church". Auglaize County Historical Society, ed. ''A History of Auglaize County Ohio''. Defiance: Hubbard, 1980, 211-212.〕
