515 North Dixie Way — the flagship's whole course

South Bend Tribune, via Hotel Online, 17 October 2016 (read); locations-wiki carriers as stated

The town's largest hotel was built for the Toll Road age and outlived three flags. The Holiday Inn at 515 North Dixie Way opened in 1963: 170 rooms, 22,000 square feet of public space, seven acres — once, in the Tribune's words, one of the largest hotels in St. Joseph County, its Gippers Lounge a local institution of the Notre Dame football weekends. The house stood just south of the interchange the Toll Road had opened seven years before, on town ground, and it worked for half a century. JSK Hospitality bought it out of foreclosure in late 2012 and ran it reduced — a hundred of its 170 rooms open at the end — until it closed in October 2016, to be demolished, the Tribune's report closing its course. Its flags divide its carriers and print whole (C26): the Tribune's course runs Holiday Inn, then a Baymont Inn & Suites era, then Econo Lodge at the end; the locations wikis give Holiday Inn, then a Quality Inn era, then Econo Lodge. The ground's present state — what, if anything, stands on the seven acres in November 2026 — was not established by any carrier read, and stands as a named gap; the town's biggest workplace and its biggest vacancy are the same lot, a decade apart.
