Notes |
Historically, the Hotel Thayer is associated with important persons, including many Presidents and other military and diplomatic leaders who stayed there. In recent history, the Thayer received the 52 Americans who had been held hostage in Iran from November 1979 to January 1981. The Hotel Thayer was designed by Caughey and Evans with consulting architects George B. Post * Sons, well-known for their design of hotels. The prominent firm of York and Sawyer designed an addition in 1946. The hotel's Tudor Gothic style interpreted in granite and brick is compatible with the predominant character of the USMA, yet distinct. The Thayer is a typical example of 1920s hotel, in its construction during a national boom in hotel development, and in design elements such as the two-story lobby with gallery, a plan allowing maximum light and air to each guest room, and its use of a historical decorative style.
