Description
Pictured in 1960 at the northwest corner of Seventh and K Streets are the Golden Eagle Hotel at 627 K Street and the Grand Rapids Furniture Company at 631 K Street. Originally built in 1853 by the Pennsylvania-born Daniel E. Callahan, and long a city landmark, the Golden Eagle was a brick structure, reaching three stories high. The section visible in the photograph, also three stories high, was added in 1860, bringing the hotel’s total number of units to 90. Several people are making their way through the intersection and the furniture store boasts signage claiming a liquidation sale in anticipation of closing.
