The Hotel Victory was among the largest hotels in the world during its time. It was destroyed in a massive fire in August of 1919. Some of the ruins can still be seen to this day on South Bass Island. The site of its famous bronze stature, “Winged Victory,” can also be seen where it once stood. However, sadly it was carted away and sold for scrap. (Lighthouse Digest archives.) Back to the edition of: Nov/Dec 2012
