Looks like the Slater Building, about 315 Main St.

I think the Warren Hotel was in Main South. Later became a rooming house. Think it was between Chandler and Piedmont Streets.

Located on Front Street, the Warren Hotel was built around the same time as the Bancroft.

It opened as the Commonwealth Hotel in 1892. Its original advertising read "Modern Improvement, Electric Lights, and Steam Heat." In 1905, the building was bought, rebuilt and renamed the Warren by Ransom F. Taylor. (Ransom was not an uncommon name at that time. In fact, the first name of the founder of Oldsmobile, the oldest car manufacturer, was Ransom.) Later, the Warren became the Mayflower and was eventually torn down.
The Warren hotel aka:Commonwealth, Mayflower was located at 191 to 209 Front Street, between former corners of Warren and Vine streets.
