BUILDINGS

“HIGTON HOTEL”
This hotel was built with the anticipation of access to the railroad, but the railroad routing changed and the hotel never became a viable business. At least, that is what I think happened, which resulted in abandoning the hotel. The hotel is still a nice photo opportunity if you feel like trying to find it in Reliance, Tennessee.
