Things
have come a long way since 1922 when Orlando Memorial High
School stood at the corner of Rosalind Avenue and Washington
Street. Today the Metropolitan at Lake Eola stands ready
to welcome permanent residents with homes that overlook
Lake Eola Park and border the vibrant neighborhoods of downtown
and South Eola.
Orlando's
second high school was built by J.C. Hanner in 1922 on this
site with a frontage of 301.65 feet on Rosalind Ave. and
231 feet on Washington St. Its official dedication on December
3, 1922, featured an address by Dr. Fons A. Hathway. The
school was dedicated to "The Orange County Boys Who
Gave Their Lives in the World War".

The
school was later replaced by another (now Howard Middle
School) at the corner of Summerlin Ave. and Robinson St.
In
June of 1961, the building was sold to Roland M. Mumford,
president of the Meyer Hotel of Jacksonville, for $400,077.77.
The old school building was torn down and the Robert Meyer
Hotel opened here with 250 rooms on May 15, 1963, at a cost
of $4,000,000. On December 1, 1972, the Robert Meyer Motor
Inn became the Kahler Plaza Inn, was later the Harley Hotel,
and then joined the Sheraton chain as the Four Points Hotel
by Sheraton Orlando Downtown.
