 Postcard circa mid-1960s

 Grand Rapids-West, Michigan
35 28th St SW

 

 With "104 Deluxe Air Conditioned Guest Rooms" Grand Rapids' first Motor Lodge opened in late 1964. Apparently still operating as a motel, this former Howard Johnson's now flies Cendant's Knights Inn name. Cactus Bob has documented the location on his website, including his own map showing the layout of the property!
