The Hotel Moraine-on-the-Lake Collection contains correspondence, records, promotional material, photographs and items relating to the operation of the Hotel Moraine-on-the-Lake. The collection contains materials from all periods of operation, but focuses mainly on the years between 1960 and 1968 when it operated as a site for industry conventions. The collection also documents the development proposed by Bert Schwartz and the community activism of the Moraine Citizens Committee. The Highland Park Historical Society was active in the last years of the hotel's existence celebrating its history and accruing items that would become this collection. Also documented in this collection is the Hotel Moraine (Highwood, Illinois). The Hotel Moraine (Highwood) is represented by news clippings, photographs, and original architectural plans
