Photographs by Bill Woody
March 2004
The Pioneer Hotel
Globe, Arizona
1906-2005
It was only in the spring of 2005 that I gained access to the upper floors of the Pioneer Hotel for the photographs displayed below. On Sunday the 17th of July, 2005, the Pioneer was destroyed by fire.
Photographs of the fire and the aftermath may be seen at: http://www.cedarhill.typepad.com/ The fire photo below was taken from the porch of the Cedar Hill B&B by my friend Linda. Click on the photo to see her page.

It is always a sense
of loss when one of my places is lost. MY PLACES are borrowed places
for photography: borrowed from the present owners; borrowed from the
past. I had been hoping to do a show of Globe photos in the
Java Junction in August or September. I had hoped to do may
more photos in the Pioneer Hotel.
