Description

Terrace Motor Hotel Menu South Congress Highway 81 Austin Texas 1950's
A 4 page room service menu from the Terrace Motor Hotel on South Congress, Highway 81 in Austin Texas. Circa 1950's. Measures about 8 1/2" x 11" when closed. Has a drawing of the Terrace Motor Hotel  on the front cover.
From the South Congress Preservation Plan.
In 1952 South Congress had 21 motels and
motor courts stretching from the railroad (at the
current Ben White Boulevard) to the river. It also
had 14 restaurants and hamburger stands, 12 Gas
stations, nine building material stores, and nine
grocery stores. That year, the Terrace Motor Hotel
was built on South Congress near Fairview Park
and it became one of the foremost places to stay
while visiting Austin. Designed in a modern style
by architects Niggli and Gustafson, it had 256
rooms and was the largest motel built on South Congress. It boasted two restaurants, two pools, and a
banquet hall. Laid out over a steep terrain requiring terraces, it became known as the Terrace Convention
Center.
Due to the size limitations of my scanner, the entire menu may not show in some of the scans.
