The iconic White Mountains hotel is the flagship property of the Omni Mount Washington Resort, and was originally built by wealthy New Hampshire native Joseph Stickney. Designed by architect Charles Alling Gifford, the project began in 1900 and was completed in July, 1902. Its style is Spanish Renaissance Revival (hence the red roof to mimic the tiled roofs of Spain), and construction included more than 2,000 doors, 900 kegs of nails, 11 miles of plumbing, and more than 1,200 windows.
