The Urbana Motor Lodge
lasted almost thirty years. It opened in the Spring of 1966 and
took off its Orange Roof in 1995 to become a Best Western. By
Phil's visit in 2004 the former Motor Lodge had become the independent Eastland
Suites. |

The Gate Lodge
no longer serves as the lobby. Instead the Restaurant was demolished
and replaced with a new structure that houses conference rooms
and the office for the property. The Gate Lodge is only accessible
through the new office and is listed on the layout as the "Gate
Lodge Room." The guest buildings to the right of the Gate
Lodge are original while the buildings to the left were all constructed
during the site's Best Western days. |
