The McCurdy Hotel is a historic building in the Riverfront District of Evansville, Indiana. It was designed by architect Henry Ziegler Dietz and built in 1916–1917 in the Colonial Revival style. The McCurdy was constructed on the former site of the St. George Hotel, which was razed in 1915. It opened for business on June 17, 1917, and closed on March 16, 1969, due to bankruptcy. In Spring 2017, the McCurdy Hotel building was reopened as redeveloped apartments.{{cite web |url= http://www.historicevansville.com/site.php?id=mccurdy |title=Historic Evansville - McCurdy Hotel |work=historicevansville.com |access-date=April 20, 2011}}{{cite web| url = https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/welcome.html| title = Indiana State Historic Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) | publisher = Department of Natural Resources, Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology | format = Searchable database| access-date = 2016-08-01}} Note: This includes {{cite web| url =https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/r/1efe0/N/Historic_Resources_of_Downtown_Evansville_Nom_1.pdf| title = National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form: Downtown Evansville MRA| access-date = 2016-08-01| author=Douglas L.
