It is positioned on South Second Street (State Rt. 93) southwest of the primary east-west route in Lawrence County and Southern Ohio, U.S. Route 52 -- paralleling the Ohio River. Prior to the development of the current interstate system, U.S. Route 52 was a primary route of travel. The route was utilized to carry traffic from the southeastern United States, beginning in Florida, through the Midwest to Chicago, Illinois and beyond.

The Marting is also located within two blocks of the Ohio River and the railroad lines, which were integral to early river ports that served the Ironton vicinity. The vistas of the Ohio River from the upper floors of the Marting are considered to be some of the most beautiful in the Ohio The Marting Hotel was constructedat its present location at the corner of South Second Street and Park Avenue (photo # S1 & S2). The structure occupies approximately one quarter of the block. It measures nearly 67 feet in width by 132 feet in depth. Primary entrance into the hotel lobby is from Park Avenue. The Marting is located near the center of the Central Business District of Ironton, which serves as the seat of Lawrence County. significant residential area for iron-ore tycoons at the turn of the century and continuing into the 1920s.

In 1907, a drawing was published which illustrated the proposal for a grand hotel, but no details of development. [1] The drawing reflected a five-story building, which was to encompass the entire city block and 1914, the Columbus, Ohio architectural firm of Howard and Merriam submitted a proposal for a hotel with the story, fireproof hotel.". The original proposed location was to be the entire block between South Second and Third construction commenced the project was relocated to the present site at the corner of Park Avenue and South Second Street. Due to the community's lack of financial assistance, the project was suspended after the basement In September of 1916, the hotel's corporation reorganized. The Columbus-based architectural firm of Richards, McCarty, Bulford & Co.

was commissioned to design a simpler structure.[3] Finally, construction on the Hotel continued in 1917.[4] The foundation work was initiated when steel was in short supply due to the start of World War I. Consequently, steel-reinforced concrete, post-and-beam construction was substituted to hollow clay tile forms in the concrete floor construction. The final result was a seven-story building.

The arched windows, a stone belt course and stone keystone details were covered on the exterior at the mezzanine level with panels of enameled steel (photos #7 & 8). The ventilated steel panels were projected several inches from the structure and, over time, became showing that it has remained, for the most part, intact. However, visible damage resulted from the panel mezzanine, the second floor and portal.

As a result, the stone sill below the mezzanine windows has been severely scraped and chipped. The outer profile of the sill, which is located below the rectangular windows, was chiseled away to provide a flush attachment surface for the panels. The structure's first floor exterior was also remodeled first floor, windows were replaced with aluminum storefronts or filled in with brick and glass block at various locations (photos # 8-11, 88, 91, 92 & 97). With the exception of limited areas, penetrated primarily by individual glass block, the brick veneer at the first floor level remains without significant detail. Significant interior remodeling also occurred in the early 1950s. The mezzanine, which originally overlooked the first floor dining room, was enclosed to create the ballroom which is three steps down from the configuration.

The second story arched windows were infilled with brick and new rectangular windows were installed (photos # 24, 25 & 79-84). This work also included the conversion of a number of the hotel rooms into small apartments (photos # 41& 48). The fifth and sixth floors incurred minimal changes such as painting and carpeting during the renovations (photos # 52-63). The first floor is occupied by a restaurant/bar (photos #20 & 21). Unfortunately, no historic photographs or drawings have been discovered to illustrate the appearance of the lobby prior to the 1950s modifications. The main stair configuration is original, by evidence that the marble treads, risers and base trim are the same from the basement up to the second floor(photos #14,16, 23 & 74).

Under architecture in Ironton, Ohio.

The building was constructed of reinforced concrete and featured a brick exterior. incorporates a classically designed exterior which features brick quoins, window cornices, ornate parapet treatments and a limestone belt course. Known in the past for its commanding spaces, stately accommodations and commercial ventures in the community, it has positively contributed to the community. The structure was the first major hotel within the city limits. Rooming houses preceded the new hotel and the earlier hotels in the region that were of residential and wood frame construction. To this day, the Marting Hotel is the only remaining downtown hotel from this era. The hotel had, until recently, served the community's transient population. The Marting Hotel had been conveniently located two blocks from the railroad depot and Ohio River served as a strong trade and industrial stop.

Ironton had once been dubbed as "Little Chicago" because it served as an overnight railroad stop on the Chicago to Washington, D.C. line. Hotels and nightlife thrived when hosting travelers and visitors who attended horse racing in Kentucky, but stayed in Ironton since the county was "wet". The Marting has always housed a tavern, restaurant or bar.[1] The City of Ironton reflected a steady growth during the 1850s through the 1880s. This region of Lawrence County was first settled in 1797.[2] The City of Ironton initially came into development to serve the needs of the Ohio Iron and Coal Company in 1849. The town continued its development as the iron business expanded. The growth was enhanced resulting from Ironton's great value as a port town. Traffic continued to increase on the Ohio River.

In a 1907 Ohio Magazine article on the history of Ironton it had stated that between 1860 and 1880, 75% of the packet boats on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers where operated by men born in Lawrence County. Railroad service on the Iron Railway commenced when the town was being built. The original plan was to incorporate a through town on Third Street, parallel to the river for seven miles. Unfortunately,the rail only reached the surrounding towns and iron furnaces. Consequently, the town continued its dependence on river transportation until 1881. At that time, the Scioto Valley Railroad was extended from Portsmouth to Ironton. By 1888, the Chesapeake and Ohio built a line on the Kentucky side of the River. Afterward, in 1892, the Scioto Valley merged into the Norfolk and Western--which still services the railways to this day.

Then when the United States declared war with Spain Continuation and expansion of river and rail travel made evident a need for a modern hotel in Ironton. At the time, rooming houses and the small wood-frame hotels served the community. Six boarding houses where listed in the 1906-07 Polk's City Directory including The Palace, The Cecil, and the Ironton Hotel. All of them have the Ohio Magazine.[6] No verbal information supplemented the drawing.

However, local historians believe that the project ceased development due to the lack of funding.[7] In 1914, the Chamber of Commerce designated a committee to consider the possibility of building a hotel. The committee selected a site at the corner of South Second and Vernon Street. The Columbus, Ohio-based architectural firm of Howard & Merriam was commissioned to prepare a proposal. The plans were based on the Morning Irontonian, an announcement was made that released the committee's proposal. Stock offerings would be made for the project. The intention was that for every dollar of stock purchased by Ironton, a dollar was to be In July of 1914, George W. Koonce, the local representative for the Pennsylvania Railroad, met with the The hotel proposal, which was unveiled in an August 28, 1914, article in the Morning Irontonian, included a five- above the mezzanine level.

Unfortunately, this was not to be the case and the project did not precede as The site on Park Avenue, between Second and Third Streets, encountered new development in 1914.

The Athletic Club of Columbus (built 1914-1916) (photo # 103 & 105) shares strong similarities to the Marting, including continuous arched windows with pronounced keystones at the second story, and the continuous stone banding located above the second story/mezzanine and at sill height on the sixth floor.

Even though Mrs. Wright had houses in the city and the furnaces in the rural area, she took up residence in the Marting Hotel during the late 1930s and remained until her death.

The Marting has also served the community in times of need. During buildings (photo # 107-110). The Marting Hotel has survived a few name changes throughout the years. In 1954, and again in 1958, the establishment was listed in the city directory as The MacArther Hotel, reflecting a change in ownership.[19] It is believed that The MacArther Hotel derived its name from its wealthy, Miami-based owner.

However, the actual date and details of the purchase transaction are unclear.[20] Stories persist that the local residents looked unfavorably upon the change of the hotel's name.[21] Interestingly enough, the 1965 city directory listed The Mac Arther Hotel as being changed to Marting House. A decade later, the 1975 directory revised the listing yet to Marting House, Inc. In 1985, it is referenced once again as its original designation of The Marting Hotel. The directory makes note of the structure in 1992 as the Marting Hotel Apartments.[22] means should bear Colonel Marting's name. It will stand a monument to his civic interests and pride of his home city." The namesake of the hotel, Colonel Henry A. Marting, was one of the early citizens that contributed much to the city of Ironton throughout its early history.

Henry Adam Marting was born December 17, 1850, across the Ohio River in Greenup County, Kentucky. He was raised in Jackson Furnace and Wheeler Mills, Ohio, where he attended local schools, and earned a reputation as a keen trader. From age nineteen, Marting worked on the railroad for two and a half years, after which time he and his brother, John, purchased a country store from their father in Gaphart's Station, Ohio. The brothers re-opened the business in Portsmouth, Ohio. In 1872 or 1875, the brothers sold the store to their uncle, moved to Ironton, and opened a general store which Henry was involved with until 1902. The success of his early business ventures led to financial involvement in the start and growth of the following stores and manufacturing enterprises: Marting, Flehr & Co.

shoe store; Mauck Waters Grocery Co.; President of Register Publishing Co.; President and co-founder of the Home Telephone Co.; and Director of the Camden Interstate Railway. Colonel Marting became known as an "ironmaster", owner and operator of three of the following steel and steel related businesses throughout his career: Roofing & Corrugating Co.; Foster Stove Co.; Eagle Iron & Steel Co. (Republic Iron & Steel); Wellston Iron & Steel Co.; Marting Iron & Steel (Ironton Iron Co.); and Columbus Iron & Steel Co.

Many members of the community are in support and encouraging renovation to the Marting Hotel, including the Lawrence County Historical Society and the Ironton- Lawrence Co. Area Community Action Organization. Unfortunately, the City of Ironton has lost historic buildings due to flood, fire, neglect or "urban renewal" programs. Even as recent as October, 1998, a neighboring circa 1885 building at the corner of South Second and Vernon Streets was demolished (see photo # S-16).
