Title
McCarthy Album 10, Photograph 311
Description
No Caption: The Ahwahnee Hotel opened in 1927. The rustic design (Gilbert Stanley Underwood, architect) is often described as "parkitecture," meaning it is meant to match its surroundings, like many structures in National Parks built in that era. The hotel was renamed the Majestic Yosemite Hotel in 2016.
