A scan of a photo I took in 1999.
From Wikipedia; The Jackson Hotel, in Anoka, Minnesota, United States, is a hotel built in 1884 after a fire destroyed much of downtown Anoka. The hotel was in operation from 1884 through 1975 and played a central role in Anoka's commerce. It was located at the hub of water, rail, and overland trade routes, and served a variety of travelers. It first served farmers and loggers who brought their goods to Anoka for sale. Later it served traveling businessmen, politicians, photographers, lecturers, entertainers, and tourists. Traveling salesmen also used the hotel's sample room as a showroom and office. It had a reputation as the leading hotel in Anoka and one of the best hotels in Minnesota.

The building was built in five sections at different times. The two-story center section, built in 1884, bears the name of its builder, C.G. Jackson. In 1885 a two-story brick addition was built to the rear of the center section. In 1888 a large three-story brick addition was built on the west side, and another three-story addition was built on the east side several years later. All three sections facing Jackson Street are built of red brick.
