[Source: Barbara Stocklin, City of Phoenix] -- City of Phoenix Historic Preservation Office staff met the property owners and a board-up team at downtown's historic St. James and Madison hotels. The HP Office agreed to board up the structures, to protect them from vandalism, while the owners decide an ultimate disposition for the properties.
The St. James Hotel, 21 E. Madison Street, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places but not the Phoenix Historic Property Register. The Madison Hotel, 35 E. Madison Hotel, is eligible for historic designation, but is not listed on either the city or national registers.
