The Bon Marché Building of Asheville, North Carolina

The Bon Marché Building, now the Haywood Park Hotel, is a historic structure in Asheville, North Carolina, built in 1923 by E.W. Grove for Solomon Lipinsky, a notable Jewish businessman. Originally serving as a department store, it was the longest-running in Asheville until 1978. The name 'Bon Marché' translates to 'the good deal' in French, inspired by one of the first department stores in Paris. The building has undergone renovations and now features a hotel, restaurant, and retail spaces, making it a vibrant part of Asheville's cultural landscape and a member of Historic Hotels of America.
