New Brick Buildings From a usually well-informed source it was learned yesterday that three OLD LAND MARK TO BE RAZED Hotel Def Campo to be Torn Down and Material to be Used for Erection of Cottages The Del Campo hotel, built during the boom of 1887 at a cost of $40,000, was sold this week to Godfrey Stock of this city and B. S. Hoover, a recent arrival from Colorado Springs, the stated consideration being $8,000. It is the intention of the purchasers to raze the building and with the material to erect fifteen modern cottages upon the thirteen-acre tract occupied by the hotel, an option upon which has been taken by the new owners. At a conservative estimate there are 300,000 feet of serviceable lumber in the building, as well as 100,000 brick, much of which can be used in foundations for cottages. Doors, windows, glass, hinges, gaspipes and other material in the building are in good condition and will be used in the erection of the cottages. It will be some weeks yet before the work of tearing down the old landmark will begin. A stock company of local capital will be formed. It is estimated that the cost of taking out and piling up of the lumber will be $3 per thousand. The shingles will be sold for kindling wood. It will cost about $4,000 to tear down the building. The Del Campo was erected during the years 1887-88 when the boom was upon the point of subsiding. It is a pretentious frame structure two stories and a half in height and covers two acres of ground. The period of wildcat speculation had swept over the land but had left this section singularly free. However, the fever struck a number of local men of means and the building was erected at a cost of $40,000. A grand opening of the hotel was had upon its completion and a great throng was present as guests of the hotel company. The house was handsomely appointed and elicited much favorable comment from those in attendance. But it never paid as a hotel and sent one manager after another out of town with heavy losses. As for the men who built it, probably not a single one but regrets the day work started upon the structure. It came near breaking up the entire company, the enterprise having proven a flat failure from the start. After being run as a hotel for a year or more at approached by a man from Fullerton who desired to have issued to him a retail liquor license at the West End.
