A Handsome Hotel

New York, 1895

The Popular Place of Martin Prinz Passes to His Son.

The old and popular exchange hotel on Fulton street, Jamaica, of which for many years Martin Prinz was the proprietor, having recently been purchased by his son, Christopher J. Prinz, has been renovated, remodeled and refurnished at large cost. The bar room has been fitted up in regal style with steel ceiling and side walls, new bar and lunch counter, and oak liquor cases by Craft, of New York. Elegant gas fixtures have been added, too, making it the handsomest place on Long Island. Smoking, sitting and toilet rooms have been carved out of the large room at the rear of the ground floor, with side entrance opening on the alleyway. Mr. Prinz has provided every accommodation for the public, including a fine stable.

Mr. Prinz had his opening Wednesday evening and last evening and his friends were present in large numbers. He is a popular young man and knows how to keep a hotel from experience.
