EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1910s and experience the grandeur of the Sun Parlour at the Nueces Hotel in Corpus Christi, Texas. This stunning photograph, taken in 1912, showcases the exquisite interior of this historic building, which was once a popular destination for travelers passing through the Lone Star State. The Sun Parlour, with its large red brick facade and grand columns, was a symbol of Southern hospitality and sophistication. The room itself is a testament to the opulence of the era, with its wicker chairs and intricate wickerwork, large potted palms, and ornate windows that let in the warm Texas sun. The people in the photograph, dressed in their finest attire, add to the sense of elegance and refinement. The Nueces Hotel, which opened in 1886, was known for its luxurious amenities and exceptional service. The Sun Parlour was a favorite gathering place for guests, where they could relax and enjoy the sunny weather while sipping on refreshing beverages or engaging in lively conversation. This photograph captures a moment in time when travel was an adventure, and the journey was just as important as the destination. The Sun Parlour at the Nueces Hotel stands as a reminder of a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of life were cherished.
