Name: Maryland Hotel Address: 205 North Ninth Street Year: 1907 Architectural Firm/Architect: Albert B. Groves Standard Architectural Styles: Classic Revival Front facade: Terra Cotta Property Type Codes: Hotel Designation: National Register of Historic Places Ward: 7 Neighborhood: 35 History: The former Maryland Hotel is an eight-story commercial building located at 205 N. Ninth Street at the northwest corner of Ninth and Pines Streets in St. Louis, Missouri; it was designed in the Classical Revival style by St. Louis Architect Albert B. Groves in 1907. The building has a steel frame with concrete floors and brick walls. It has been moderately maintained as a residence hotel for many years and is currently undergoing a renovation. Major alterations are primarily limited to the first floor commercial spaces, which have had many incarnations over the years; and to the original cornice, which has been removed. Alterations of this nature are common to most historic commercial buildings in the central business district." [From the nomination to the National Register of Historic Places as prepared by Mary M.
