Description: Fort Worth, TEXAS - The Westbrook Hotel: The Fort Worth block between Main, Houston, 3rd and 4th Streets now famous for the Chisholm Trail mural was the site of a hotel for more than 100 years. In 1877, the El Paso Hotel (C. K. Fairfax, Proprietor; Fort Worth City Hotel Company, owner) opened its doors; in 1885, the Pickwick (J. M. Huffington); in 1895 the Delaware Hotel (M. C. Hurley). The Tillar family under the direction of Benjamin Johnston Tillar (1866 - 1923) purchased much of this block, including the Delaware in 1898, tore down the old hotel by 1909, and in 1910, built the Westbrook, which was imploded in 1978. This White Border Era (1915-30) postcard notes on the card's reverse that the owner has stayed at the hotel and paid at the $2.00 rate for his stay. The card is in good condition. E. C. Kropp. Co., Milwaukee, Wis. No. 14589N.
