==History==
In 1915, a group of businessmen in Aurora, Illinois determined that the city required a first-class hotel. They formed the Aurora Island Hotel Corporation to oversee the project; it was a branch of the Aurora Island Development Corporation. The site chosen was previously a mill race and swimming hole. Construction on the eight-story building began in 1916. It was the first skyscraper on Stolp Island, Aurora's downtown. The 135-room hotel was opened for business on July 14, 1917. Edwin C. Faber, the general manager of the Chicago Aurora and Elgin Railroad, was the president of the hotel. The structure was designed by H. Ziegler Dietz and built by George W. Caldwell of Caldwell & Marshall. Harry H. Dunbar took over operations in 1919. In 1928, he sold it to William O. Gosselin, who was in the process of building the Leland Hotel on the island. On June 3, 1982, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service. On September 10, 1986, it was listed as a contributing property to the Stolp Island Historic District.〔http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/200942.pdf〕
