The Pine Bluff Hotel was established in downtown Little Rock at the corner of Fifth and Main streets in 1913. The hotel housed a jewelry store, a gift shop, a barber shop, and a restaurant & lounge in its heyday. The former Victorian/Corinthian-style hotel still holds the largest display of stained glass in the state of Arkansas, comprising eighty-one panels. The hotel closed in 1969.
The hotel underwent restoration beginning in 1991 by the organization Citizens United to Save the Pines.
