Motel

I distinctly remember a motel that existed on the site of Merchant's Walk, next to Independence Plaza, prior to Merchant's Walk's construction. Looking at photos, I don't believe it was part of the Vulcan Motor Lodge, as it doesn't appear to have extended that far. I wish I could remember if it extended from there to the the current site of Independence Plaza. Guess I should dig up my old phone book downloads and check. --Lkseitz (talk) 20:15, 3 July 2017 (PDT)
