The plaque says, "The Oasis Hotel, constructed 1923 - 25, contained approximately 20 units and included the Tower Building, the only three-story hotel building in Palm Springs for many years.
The 40-foot tower, with its pyramidal roof provided access to the upper-story rooms and a roof top terrace. The topmost room was called "Loretta Young's Room", because it was her favorite in Palm Springs.
The Moderne/Art Deco style hotel was designed by Lloyd Wright, the son of Frank Lloyd Wright, and constructed of solid concrete using a technique which was quite advance for that time.
The McCallum Adobe, once located on this site has been moved to the Village Green.
