Abstract:

Slightly removed from the urban environment, Asheville's numerous hotels, sanitaria, and luxury homes shaped the city's surrounding landscape. Many of these buildings were constructed during the boom years between 1890 and 1920. Some of the more noteworthy and still preserved structures are reviewed as well as some of the famous visitors drawn to the area's beauty.
