majestic no more

 

 

The Majestic Bath House and Resort Spa is one the faded grand dames of Hot Springs.  Its history from construction in the 1800s to closure in 2006 covers the spas, baseball celebrities, gangsters and gambling.  Photographers who like old and abandoned buildings will be envious of Walter Arnold who had legal access and a key to the door to photograph the hotel and its demise. (We even had the same thought of shooting the facade through the awning struts.)
