Saving the Luther Hotel in Palacios, Texas

Margaret Doughty & Edith Gower, Co-Chairs of the Palacios Preservation Association, share the story of the grassroots fight to save the historic Luther Hotel from destruction against all odds! The Luther Hotel in Palacios was built on the Matagorda Bay in 1903. The first planned demolition date of December 19th, 2022, saw protests, letter writing, phone calling, and petition signing campaigns led by the Palacios Preservation Association (PPA). It was one thing to extend the building's life, one temporary restraining order at a time, but another to find a solution to revive the Luther as a beautiful seaside hotel once again. However, the PPA's vision is now becoming a reality thanks to Margaret, Edith, and their community of supporters.
