Occidental[edit]

Apparently the Palace was renamed the Occidental in 1894, thirteen years after Shibell took it over.^[1] On June 21, 1894 the Arizona Daily Star announced "The old Palace hotel will be opened to the public on July 3 by Henry Levin and Hilario Urquides, under the name of the Occidental Hotel."^[2] The contemporary Tucson "Occidental Hotel" (formerly the Grand Hotel) to Shibell's Palace is advertised as having a "Mrs. A. Peters" as the new proprietor and manager in January 1882.^[3] --tronvillain (talk) 15:00, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, the Occidental Hotel then apparently burned down in June of 1882.^[4] It was then reopened as the "Grand Central" by a "Dr. W. J. White" on February 19, 1883.^[5] In any case, there doesn't seem to be any good contemporary evidence of Shibell owning or managing an Occidental hotel along with the Palace. --tronvillain (talk) 15:28, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
