The Monson Motor Lodge was a hotel located at 32 Avenida Menendez, Saint Augustine, Florida. The site was originally the site of a boarding house as early as the 1880s, and was later the site of the Monson Hotel before the final Monson Motor Lodge was constructed in 1961. It was the site of the 1964 Monson Motor Lodge Protests, a series of landmark Civil Rights protests. The Monson Motor Lodge was demolished in 2003 and a Hilton Hotel was built on the site. Today, historical markers at the hotel commemorate the protests and the motel's front steps and original sign have been preserved.
