Central Hotel (Mount Joy, Pennsylvania)

Central Hotel and A. Bube's Brewery, are a historic hotel and brewery complex located at Mount Joy, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The brewery building was built in 1859, and consists of a 2 1/2-story, stone flat roofed building with a one-story, attached brick building. The stone portion features large, arched double entry doors. In 1880, Alois Bube built the Central Hotel. It is a three-story, flat roofed building with a wide overhanging cornice and elaborate decoration in the Late Victorian style. The original third-floor had a mansard roof, but it was destroyed by fire in 1893, and replaced with the present configuration. The two buildings are connected by a three-story ice house.[2]
