Bancroft Hotel
The Bancroft Hotel was built in 1939. The hotel's asymmetry is a departure from Art Deco's classic threes.
The facade includes eyebrows that extend between the windows and around the corner, giving the building 'racing stripes'. To the right of the door is a glass block tower which helps to break up the strong horizontal lines created by the eyebrows.
