[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well you saw an eyesore, I loved that hotel. Very sad to see it go.[/quote]

I like it, too. And I doubt the building is going to be demolished just because the hotel is going out of business. I can think of plenty of uses for it.[/quote]

It won’t be demolished- it’s historical. A building like that is terribly expensive to rehab and maintain so it will likely be sitting without a new tenant/buyer given the current market conditions.

The building you are talking about is aready re-habbed and is condos. The hotel building is not historic and can be taken down almost any time.[/quote]

I can see parts being changed up like the Fannie Mae building on Wisconsin - maybe a smaller hotel, but some retail and more condos. But the real question is - will the neighborhood throw a temper tantrum over a bit more retail? My guess is yes - NIMBYs going to NIMBY. [/quote]

This. Impossible neighborhood to do anything. A Fannie Mae/city ridge proposal would be fantastic. But I doubt that could happen. The neighborhood nearly shot down the Macklin redevelopment. They wanted more parking spots for a building a block from the metro. [/quote]
