In 1923 the Sheraton apartment hotel opened here. The Sheraton chain was named after this Bay State Road hotel. The roof was not enclosed then, and the rooftop restaurant and dance floor were covered only by a canopy. Offering a panoramic view of the downtown skyline, the restaurant was one of the most successful in Boston. In 1950 the hotel was purchased by the Sonnabend family, who now operate the Sonesta chain of hotels.
