Calgary has a connection to the Sundance Kid, notorious outlaw and train robber. The Grand Central Hotel on Atlantic Avenue (9th Avenue) was owned by Joseph Salterio. The hotel had survived the great fire of 1886 that had destroyed a large portion of the town. Salterio was a well known and popular proprietor. He had "a host of friends and few or no enemies. He was most liberal and kind hearted[1].In 1892, during Salterio's ownership, Frank Hamilton and Harry Longabaugh (better known as The Sundance Kid) took over the hotel's saloon. But their partnership was short lived.
