The Ben Moore Hotel, a former civil rights hub, echoes with history but lies dormant, waiting for a revival in Montgomery’s storied Centennial Hill.

"Before, during, and after the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Martin Luther King, Jr., and his inner circle held secret meetings on the roof of the Hotel Ben Moore, a Green Book listing, while downstairs in the basement, King, Ralph Abernathy, officials from the NAACP, and other civil rights leaders socialized in the barbershop."

Just watched a episode of abandoned America. Bout this hotel. Alot of history & some reason abandoned. Idk why some work wouldn't go into restoring it. Mont city spends enough $ on bs. Why not spend something on a historic building smh.

The souvenir shop, TOURS OF MONTGOMERY is located right across the street from the now closed and deserted, BEN MOORE HOTEL (which should be re-opened for tours) ; a historical site located in the Centennial Hill area at the corner of High St. and S. Jackson St., just a block south of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s historic home in the 1960's. That entire area is full of civil rights and Montgomery history... Vernon's house, Hall Bros Barber. Shop (oldest in Montgomery- still operated by one of the Hall bros. who gives interesting "First hand" accounts of his encounters with Dr. MLK.). A must visit area for any tourist AND local!

It's closed😢 but it's a beautiful building with a lot of history. I would have loved to see it in it's Hay day. I peered into the windows and oh what a treasure it holds. I could spend hours inside cataloging stuff. Hope it can be saved

This is such a historical place. I really hope Edward Davis Jr. find the proper funding to renovate this iconnic place, or at the very least, find someone who would honor the history after they purchase it from him.
