City of Montgomery Purchases Old Governor’s House Hotel
Montgomery Mayor Steven Reed has confirmed that the city of Montgomery has purchased the vacant Governor’s House Hotel on South Boulevard.
The Governor’s House was once a thriving spot for social events and gatherings, including many state election night celebrations.
Over the years, the building has fallen into disrepair from neglect, and had experienced a few fires.
Reed says the city purchased the building and property from the state for just $100.
Mayor Reed says the property will be assessed, then officials will determine if the building is a candidate for renovation and repurposing, or if it needs to be torn down.
The mayor did not say what options officials are considering for the property.
