Web Long House and Motel
The Web Long House and Motel is a historic former motel complex on the north side of United States Route 63, just east of Springwood Road, on the outskirts of Hardy, Arkansas. The complex includes three buildings: a single-story stone house, which also served as the office for the motel, a duplex located just to its east, also built of flagstone, and a four-unit stone motel building facing south. The complex was built in 1943 by Web Long, president of the Hardy Development Council, as a home for his family and a business serving travelers. It is one of the earliest known examples of motel architecture in Sharp County.[2]
