Bob - Some More Mary Cutler architecture

I wanted to share a few more pictures of Mary Cutler structures.

This is from the interior of Hermits Rest, which is west from Canyon Village. The stones were rubbed with soot at the time of construction to make it look older.


This one is another from the Observation Tower at Desert View. It was constructed in 1933, but meant to look ancient.


Here is a view of one of the many painted walls inside of the Observation Tower.


El Tovar, by the way was designed by Charles Whittlesby, but the interior design and decoration was by Mary Cutler (sorry, we don't have the tools to lighten this up on the laptop, but you can see it has a "hunting lodge" feel).




This is the Lookout Studio, an MC designed structure, at South rim village.
