Flint Postcards: Elms Motor Lodge
The Elms Motor Lodge in the mid fifties.
UPDATE: The former Elms Motor Lodge went up in flames on February 2, 2012.
Here's the original post from July 5, 2008.
Jim of L-Town comments: It has been a long time since the Elms looked that good. Last time I was there, I was accompanying the Flint vice squad on a prostitution sting for a story in the Journal. The room the decoy was using was so dirty and smelly that no one wanted to sit anywhere for fear that something small would hop on your clothing and hitch a ride outside. I remember thinking about what kind of person would ever put their head on a pillow in such a deranged place. There is a hotel/motel across the street in the same area that rents rooms by the hour/day/week/month. It is actually worse.
