Holiday Inn Comes to Baytown After 25 Years of Effort
A Baytown driven by Norman Hargrave leads a nine-member group to bring a Holiday Inn to the city. The Texas M Corp was formed in 1961 with officers Hargrave president, Bill Miller vice president, and Jack Henderson secretary. Construction began last spring under Allen Bros. and O'Hara, with plans expanded to 116 rooms and a commercial building to host conventions and banquets. Reminiscing, Hargrave recalls a long career from Boy Scouts in New York to Baytown real estate, including Robson Jewelry and downtown property, culminating in the hotel project opening in time for further development.
