Riviera Hotel (Hot Springs, Arkansas)

The Riviera Hotel is a historic hotel building at 719 Central Avenue in Hot Springs, Arkansas. It is a five-story brick-faced structure, its main facade divided into two sections flanking a central panel. The outer sections are each topped by a rounded arch with carved foliate panels in the corner sections outside the arch. Bands of windows are separated by horizontal panels at the lower levels, and it has a commercial storefront on the ground floor. The building was designed by Charles L. Thompson and built about 1930. It is a locally significant architectural work reminiscent of the Chicago school.[2]
