Gabe Tower

In late 1963, Gabe Fiorella completed construction of Owensboro's first tall building. There, on the southern edge of the little world Gabe was building at 18th and Triplett Streets, Gabe's Tower Inn, a 13-story cylinder of a hotel, clad in a rainbow of pastel-painted panels ? was a slice of Miami in western Kentucky. By the time I was a kid in the early 1970s, Gabe's Tower, swimming pool at the top; restaurant-in-the-round just below; and still rising alone from a field of one-and two-story houses, was the undisputed marvel of Owensboro Kentucky. (copy from a website, but is true for me also.)

Now it appears to be abandoned.
See it in its heyday:
