- An Original Building of the Irvine Ranch -
DID YOU LIVE HERE OR KNOW SOMEONE WHO DID?
If you or someone in your family lived in or visited the hotel at any time before 1986, we'd love to hear from you! If you have a story to share about anything related to the hotel or Irvine before development, PLEASE drop us a note!
DO YOU HAVE ANY PHOTOS TAKEN BEFORE 1986 OF THE HOTEL OR TAKEN BEFORE 1964 OF ANY OTHER PLACE IN IRVINE?
Photos of Irvine taken before "modern" development are hard to come by. ANY photo you have would be most interesting! The undated photo above from First American Title was taken after 1919 when the hotel was completed and before a sign identifying the building was added sometime in the 1930s.
