The Mabson Hotel was a five-story brick and stone-clad hotel located on the northeast corner of 3rd Avenue North and 22nd Street, across 22nd Street from St Paul's Cathedral.
The building was constructed in a Richardsonian Romanesque style with large rusticated arches of iron ore at the ground floor and brick with projecting sills and recessed arches above. The large arches were filled with triple-arched windows while narrower arches marked the clippped corner of the building. The deep cornice was surmounted by a slate-faced mansard roof punctuated by piers carrying the structural frame through the roofline.
The site of the former hotel is now a parking lot from which a "Uniform House of Dixie" painted sign is prominently visible.
