Element Moline is a part of the Westin chain of inns owned by Marriott, but it is anything but your typical hotel. It opened in March of 2018 in an old warehouse along the Mississippi River that has a great deal of history.
Google/Element Moline This renovated space belonged to Crandall Transfer & Warehouse Co. in the 1920s and 1930s before being sold to Pioneer Transfer & Storage Co. From 1950 to 1960, it was a warehouse for Sears, Roebuck & Co. Today, it belongs to the city and is part of a plan for a train station that would receive passengers from Chicago.
