General Note
The Lightner Museum was formerly the Alcazar Hotel built by Henry Flagler in 1888. In 1948 Otto C. Lightner, the Chicago publisher and editor of "Hobbies" magazine, converted the empty hotel into a museum. Three floors display his vast collection of art, antiques and other items. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
