History
The Genetti was built in 1921 in the midst of Williamsport's huge logging boom. The hotel opened on June 21, 1922 as the Lycoming Hotel.[1]
The architect of the hotel was New Jersey-born William Lee Stoddart.[1]
Construction
The Genetti took a little over a year to build, with construction starting in 1921 and the project being completed in 1922. It is the tallest building in Williamsport.[1]
The hotel has been through many renovations, such as a new modern ballroom, new elevators, and a restoration of the hotel's exterior.
