Motel Nostalgia

The latest issue of Atlantic Monthly has a nice article on old vintage motels, those of modern design and built in the 40-s through 50's.

A portion of the article can be read on-line - only subscribers get full access to the entire article.

But the following slideshow of Florida motels, with music and narration, is open and available for everyone.

The guy who wrote this is Wayne Curtis, the same guy who did the Tiki article in American Heritage last year (for which I provided a sidebar):

Thanks, Vern. The slideshow was fabulous.
