I remember that place, and think I stayed there around 1983 when I was a kid and Mom was at the Medical Center for a few weeks for some tests. I think it was called The Tides, and next door was The Tides II. I may be wrong on that, but I know there were two hotels that were from that period that stood on the west side of Main just north of Holcombe with those names, and the remaining building was torn down in the last few years.

The only 15-story hotel I'm aware of that was in the Med Center was the Anderson Mayfair on Holcombe, but I haven't seen a good picture of it.

This is the Tidelands. Is this what you were thinking about?

Cool Ebay find! Here's a set of matches that gives us more information than we previously knew.  Love the company logo!

Too bad about the low resolution. Maybe one day we will find a higher quality image.
