Hillcrest Apartments, Toledo, OH
Historic Hillcrest Apartments, 1601-1621 Madison Avenue, Toledo, Ohio. The Hillcrest Hotel, also known as the Hillcrest Arms Apartment Hotel, was built in 1929. Authors, artists, and business people stayed in the hotel, including Amelia Earhart in 1933. She had an arrow painted on the roof to assist pilots in locating the local airfield. The hotel closed in 1990. The building was then used as an interdenominational Christian center to help homeless people and substance abusers before a 1994 fire closed it. A $12 million remodel in 1999 converted the building to use as a residential apartment building with 106 apartments, however the building was sold in foreclosure in 2009. Ownership then passed hands a few times before the current owners, Millennia Housing Management, purchased it in 2012. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
