Blodgett Hotel (aka Blodgett House) was later known as Hotel Williams. Online auction sites with "real photo" postcards will turn up a "Blodgett House" postcard mailed from York every once in a while.

Hotel Williams appears in telephone books until the early 1960s. By the late 1960s, the site had been incorporated into a Goodyear Tire & Rubber sales location.

In 2009, the former Goodyear building houses FENSTER's PREMIER AUTO RESTORATION, a meticulous "frame up" rebuilder and restorer of old cars.

Also waymarked WM76TH in "Photos Then And Now."
