Led by Margaret Doughty and Edith Gower, our dedicated team of volunteers is committed to preserving the iconic Luther Hotel, a 120-year-old gem, not only for its historical significance but also for the economic benefits it brings to our community. Learn more about our journey and the Luther Hotel's captivating story here:
Thanks to the tireless efforts of the Palacios Preservation Association and our community allies, the Luther Hotel has been saved from demolition. Now, with the recent sales contract signed by Palacios native Nick Herman, representing SouthVest BDC, LLC, the Luther Hotel's restoration journey is well underway. Together, we're preserving not just a building, but a piece of Texas history.
Partnering with Preservation Texas, a non-profit organization dedicated to historic preservation, heritage tourism, and community engagement, ensures that our efforts are bolstered by additional expertise and resources. This partnership allows us to not only retain the Luther Hotel's historical significance but also ensure it thrives as a vibrant center for our community.
With Preservation Texas as the fiscal sponsor for the Palacios Preservation Association, donations to the Luther Hotel Fund are now being accepted. Our goal is to raise $2 million toward rehabilitation expenses. Every contribution, whether financial or through volunteering your time and expertise, helps secure the Luther Hotel's legacy and enriches our community for generations to come.
