Holiday Inn is a national motel chain with several locations in the Birmingham District. The first local Holiday Inn motel was erected at 4301 Bessemer Super Highway. Three more were developed in 1962 by franchisee Shades Crest Motels. Those first locations used architectural designs created by Memphis-based architect William Bond and were built by the chain's own construction division.
