A Look Through
History:
In the early 20th century, the Randolph Hotel graced this lot, offering visitors a luxurious stay during the bustling oil boom. Known for its elegance, the Randolph Hotel was a symbol of El Dorado’s growth and prosperity. Alongside the Randolph, the Majestic Theatre entertained locals and visitors with films, art, and performances, becoming a cultural hub for the community. Completing the block on the corner of East Locust St and South Washington Avenue was the Mezzanine Auto & Well Station, which served as a vital service stop for travelers and locals alike, providing essential support for the growing number of automobiles in the city.
At The Haywood and The Well Bar & Grill, we are proud to stand on a site that carries rich historical significance in the heart of downtown El Dorado, Arkansas. Long before The Haywood opened its doors, this very block was home to several iconic landmarks, as revealed in the June 1924 Sanborn map.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to move forward, we carry this history with us. The Haywood Hotel is not just a place to stay; it’s a part of El Dorado’s legacy, a testament to the evolution of this vibrant community. By embracing both the past and the present, we aim to offer our guests and patrons an experience that celebrates the heritage of this remarkable location.
