Carbon Hotel

The Carbon Hotel was built in the early 1900's and was first owned by C.A. Bartolino. Over the years, the building served as a hotel, bar, cafe, and sporting house. During Helper's heydays, the bordello on the upper floor was very popular, though somewhat illegal, because of the large number of single male immigrants working in the local mines. Increasing pressure from authorities during the 1970's led to its closure. In 1987, the Matt Warner Chapter purchased the building with the help of Helper City, restored it, and now uses it as a meeting hall for the organization.
