View of Montana Hotel after fire in Jerome, Arizona.
In 1899 William A. Clark of Montana began the construction of the Montana Hotel “for the comfort of his miners." The architect was F. H. Perkins of Phoenix, Arizona. Clark was a U. S. Senator and Montana mining expert. By 1900 the Hotel had been completed. On February 28, 1915, fire completely destroyed the hotel. Faulty electrical wiring was sited as the cause.
