Eagle Hotel,
2415 Montana Avenue

The Eagle Hotel was built in 1909 by Austrian immigrant Matthias Thomas,
who raised his five children in a second floor apartment of the hotel.
The hotel was reportedly used as an auxiliary hospital during the flu
epidemic of 1918. The building was vacant from 1983-1993, temporary home
of transients and pigeons that flew freely through broken windows, until
local entrepreneur Michael Schaer
renovated the Victorian Italianate style structure.
