Roosevelt Hotel Vintage Postcard

This vintage postcard shows the Roosevelt Hotel in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the early 1940’s. At the time of this postcard, The Roosevelt was a grand hotel that many visitors traveling to Pittsburgh would stay in.

Today it is the Roosevelt Arms Apartments, 609 Penn Ave. in Pittsburgh.

A bit of Pittsburgh trivia is that at one point, the sign was faded and it became known as “Hotel Roo.”
