On October 22, 1920 this Hibbing, Minnesota hotel was ready to relocate. A newspaper account on January 5, 1921 informed readers the hotel was a $19,000 loss for the joint owners when it collapsed January 4, 1921. The hotel was being moved from “old” Hibbing to “new” Hibbing and skidded from the moving trucks.
