Hotel Carver was listed in the Green Book from 1948-1951 as “Hotel Carver—930 Prospect Ave.” under “Restaurants.”1

Hotel Carver was located at 930 Prospect Avenue in Elizabethtown. This business has not yet been found in any historical records, nor has this address been located. No African American hotel owners were found in the 1950 federal census for Elizabethtown. There does not appear to be a “Prospect Avenue” in Elizabethtown today.
