Description: Kansas City, MISSOURI - Phillips Hotel - ADVERTISING MULTIVIEW - 1945: The Hotel Phillips, a historic 217-room hotel located on 12th Street in downtown Kansas City, Missouri, opened in 1931. The site was formerly occupied by the Glennon Hotel, in which Harry S. Truman operated a haberdashery shop. That hotel was demolished, and the Phillips was constructed at a cost of $1.6 million, opening in February 1931. The 450-room hotel was the tallest in Kansas City, at 20 stories. The Phillips was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. It operated for a time in the 1990s as the Radisson Suite Hotel Kansas City. It was bought by Marcus Hotels in 2001 from Wyndham Hotels. In October 2015, it was announced that The Phillips was purchased by Arbor Lodging Partners. The Phillips was renovated and joined the Curio Collection by Hilton. This Linen Era Multiview, published in 1945, shows the Phillips along with a number of local sites: Nelson Gallery of Fine Arts, City Hall, Country Club Plaza, Kansas City Municipal Airport, Liberty Memorial, Municipal Auditorium, and Swope Park. The card's reverse informs of the Hotel's rates at the time of the card's printing (1945): Single $2.50 and Up, Double $4.50 to $10.00. The card is in good condition. “C.T. Art-Colortone”.
