| Throughout the country, Art Deco designers embellished their buildings with local images and created a unique American architectural expression. The Frontier Hotel, built in 1937, is a fine example of Art Deco style. Plains Indian tipis frame the terra cotta entrances, and a portrait of rodeo cowboy Pete Knight flanks the south entrance. Under windows, stepped brickwork contrasts with geometric terra cotta blocks. Bands of stylized floral motifs ring the building and finish vertical panels. |
