The Depot Hotel in Reno, Nevada (railway station for the Central Pacific Railroad and the Virginia and Truckee Railroad)


The Great Fire of 1879 obliterated the building, but a grander, three-story hotel with 47 rooms, a bar, and railroad offices rose in its place. Tragically, the Depot Hotel met its final demise in 1889, with the CPRR opting to replace it with a modest single-story brick station instead.
