  • Leopold's Ghost: The History of the Hotel Leo
    Oct 17 2024

    In this episode we discuss the early history of Bellingham’s historic Hotel Leo, aka the Leopold Hotel. From its earliest days as the Byron House through its take-over and expansion under beer baron Leopold Schmidt. And since it’s spooky season, we include stories about some “potential ghosts” that might be wandering the halls, including Leo himself, as well as a mysterious count building hydroplanes on Lake Whatcom at the dawn of World War 1.

    CONTENT WARNING: TOPICS OF DEATH AND SUICIDE. Listen with care.

    The hotel has a long history so this is Part 1! Tune in next time for Part 2 when we talk about the roaring 1920s and beyond… Show notes and more at ⁠⁠⁠https://bellinghistory.com/the-podcast
