Formerly Continental Inn

The Diamond Inn in this photo.

Diamond Inn, 2301 Irvin Cobb Drive, U. S. Routes 60 and 62, Paducah, Kentucky. View looks south. Located in the southeast corner of Irving Cobb and Bridge Street. Note the Gulf and Chevron stations in the opposite corner. The hotel was torn down sometime between November of 2022, and August 2023. Look closely, and you will also notice the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad cutting diagonally thru the intersection!!
