A fabulous hotel recently opened at 2 E. Read St, but before it was the colorful Hotel Ulysses, it was the Latrobe building, named after the family mansion that stood in its place. Join us today as we look back at this corner’s history, and the influential Latrobe family that once lived here. Thanks for watching and see you again next week!
