Tidewater Inn, Hotel in den Vereinigten Staaten
The Tidewater Inn is a historic hotel building listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Easton, Maryland, featuring a four-story main section with three-story side wings constructed of brick. The structure displays Colonial Revival architecture with a distinctive chevron-shaped floor plan and includes a later addition on its north side.
The building opened in 1949 following a fire in 1944 that destroyed the previous Hotel Avon and left the area without major accommodations. A northern wing addition was completed in 1953, expanding capacity and establishing it as a destination for travelers and business visitors throughout the region.
The building's name reflects the regional geography and maritime heritage of the area. It has served as a community gathering space for decades, where residents and visitors connect over meals and shared events that celebrate local traditions.
The inn sits centrally in Easton within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and local attractions, making exploration convenient. Its location near major routes like Route 50 and proximity to connections toward the Chesapeake Bay Bridge make it a practical base for travelers exploring other parts of the Eastern Shore.
The hotel hosted an international scientific meeting in 1958 and received notable visits from senators and political figures who stopped there during campaign events. This connection to historic political moments made it far more than a simple lodging place and shows its role in shaping regional affairs.
