Granit Hotel & Country Club in Kerhonkson, New York

by John Margolies

Revisit the warm and leisurely lounge of the Granit Hotel & Country Club in Kerhonkson, New York. Photographed in 1977 by the renowned architectural photographer John Margolies, this interior photograph gives you an unusual glimpse into the casual hospitality and mid-century style of the Catskills "Borscht Belt" resorts, located in upstate New York. Showing a sunny hotel lobby lounge surrounded by full height glass wall panels overlooking the courtyard, this photograph is an illustration of the glamorous but humble style of the 1970s' resorts.

For almost four decades, John Margolies traveled across America capturing its unique commercial and resort architecture in the Roadside America Project. This fine art print will make your collection of mid-century designs even more interesting and unique.
