&#13;
Under false name, the maestro visited Winter Park so sons could go fishing&#13;
By Sumner Rand, Sentinel Star Staff&#13;
&#13;
Leopold Stokowski spent a week at the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park back in 1961 and this reporter was sent over to interview the maestro.&#13;
The interview, however, had to be conducted over the telephone from the hotel lobby to Stokowski’s room.&#13;
He had his two young sons by Gloria Vanderbilt with him, and he said he didn’t want to jeopardize his custody privileges (stemming from his 1955 divorce from Gloria Vanderbilt) by involving them in any publicity or photographs. He was, in fact, registered under another name at the hotel.&#13;
The then 74-year-old Stokowski, though, was most pleasant on the telephone, chatting for nearly 10 minutes about the state of music in the world.&#13;
He did reveal that his sons, Christi and Stani, who were then 9 and 10, loved to fish and were planning to go fishing that very morning with hotel manager Dick Lee on Lake Maitland.&#13;
“I’m here for a week,” he told this reporter. “I’ve been here before and I hope to come again, it’s a beautiful place. I remembered how beautiful it was and decided to come back so the boys could get some fishing in the lakes.”&#13;
He declined to say on what occasion he had been in Winter Park previously, although one Winter Park resident suggested he might have visited the retired Metropolitan Opera singer Louise Homer and her composer husband, Sidney, who were residents there in their final years.&#13;
During that 1961 week in December, he attended a rehearsal of the Bach Festival Choir at the invitation of its then musical director, the lat Robert Hufstader, who was an old acquaintance.&#13;
He also was a guest of the Robert Lamonts (now deceased) at their ranch home in Chuluota where he met among others Henry Mazer, then Florida Symphony Orchestra conductor.&#13;
Lee, reached at Lee’s Inn in Highlands, N.C., which he runs in the summertime, remembered that Stokowski came back to the Alabama on at least two occasions later with the children.&#13;
Lee also said that he personally brought the two boys to the Sentinel Star for a tour of the newspaper plant.&#13;
Several years later this reporter attended a performance of Shostakovitch’s Fifth Symphony which Stokowski conducted at the Boaston Symphony’s summer home at Tablewood, Mass., but did not get a chance to speak to him. &#13;
Sentinel Star veteran Sumner Rand was a member of the news staff covering the musical and theatrical beat when it was learned Stokowski was in Winter Park incognito. &#13;

Sentinel Star, Thursday, September 15, 1977&#13;
&#13;
Stokowski, area horticulturist developed special friendship&#13;
By Sumner Rand, Sentinel Star Staff&#13;
Mulford B. Foster, one of the area’s best known horticulturists and landscape architects, spent a summer in 1928 with Leopold Stokowski and his family in Switzerland.&#13;
Foster, who had a nursery and the Latchstring Tea Room on Magnolia Avenue between Colonial Drive and Park Lake Avenue for many years before moving to his present estate at Clarcona, was intruduced to the famous conductor by a mutual friend from Clermont. &#13;
Stokowski’s wife at the time had a home in Palm Beach and the conductor spent time in Florida frequently.)&#13;
Stokowski who died Tuesday at age 95, was fascinated by Foster’s philosophy and insight into plant life, according to Mrs. Foster, and invited him to spend the summer at his chalet in the Haute-Savoie. &#13;
They traveled about together in France and Switzerland, with Foster bringing back photographs of plants and flowers indigenous to the area.&#13;
Stokowski knowing of Foster’s artistic ability, demanded to know “What’s wrong with your paint brush?,” so Mulford began daily paintings or sketches of the plant life for Stokowski. Foster, who was several years younger than Stokowski, later wrote a book about those paintings. It was never published, but he sent a copy to Stokowski.&#13;
The conductor at the time was married to his second wife, Love Johnson, a member of the pharmaceutical family of Johnson &amp; Johnson. Foster taught their children (including a daughter by Stokowski’s first wife, Olga Samaroff) to draw and play tennis. &#13;
While with Stokowski, Foster met many leading musicians including the French composer Maurice Ravel. “There was an empathy between them,” says Mrs. Foster. “My husband was able to convey his belief that plant life is a spiritual as music or painting is to other people.”&#13;
Stokowski and Foster continued to exchange letters over the years and in 1939 or 1940 they met again in Sao Paulo, Brazil quite by accident.&#13;
Foster and his wife, Racine, were there to collect bromeliads (they amassed one of the largest collections in the world) and Stokowski came through on a concert tour with the youth orchestra he founded.&#13;
The horticulturist-botanist didn’t think Stokowski would recognize him but as Foster and his wife entered the door of the hotel dining room, “Stokowski waved at us as if he’d seen him (Foster) only yesterday.”&#13;
They had dinner together and Stokowski arranged tickets for a box at the Sao Paulo concert hall where he was conducting the concert.&#13;
One one of the occasions when Stokowski was visiting at the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park in the early 1960s, the Fosters invited him out to see their gardens and collections of tropical plants at Bromel-La in Clarcona near Lockhart. They picked up Stokowski, who had his two young sons by Gloria Vanderbilt) with him at the hotel and took them on a tour of Bromel-La.&#13;
&#13;
A younger Stokowski visiting Winter Park&#13;
The late Leopold Stokowski, world famous conductor who died Tuesday, is shown in a 1961 photo made during the first of three visits to Winter Park. Stokowski and his sons Stand and Chris, who in 1961 were ages 10 and 9, respectively, spent two-week holidays at the Alabama Hotel in the winters of 1961, ‘62, and ‘63. They are shown above with Dick Lee, manager of the hotel, and Edward Gurney, then mayor of Winter Park and later a U.S. congressman and senator, at the old Winter Park railroad station.</text>

&#13;
Alabama checking out as hotel and into condominiums&#13;
&#13;
1980 is a reconstruction year for the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park. The landmark hotel is being converted into luxury condominiums.&#13;
The exterior of the Alabama Hotel, right, with its vine-covered facade, will go unchanged through the renovation project. Only the interior will be redesigned to accommodate 22 condominium apartments. Below, an aerial view of 58-year-old hotel on Lake Maitland.&#13;
&#13;
By Jack Snyder, Real Estate Editor&#13;
&#13;
The outside has changed very little. Vines still encompass the elegant old hotel from top to bottom.&#13;
But inside, the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park, once a refuge for Northerners escaping harsh winters, is undergoing a radical transformation.&#13;
By next march the change will be completed and 22 luxury condominiums will have replaced the hotel’s 66 rooms.&#13;
The Alabama is the only survivor of the several luxury hotels that once housed wealthy visitors each winter. Among those that have disappeared are The Altamonte Hotel, overlooking Lake Orienta in Altamonte Springs, The Seminole Hotel and The Virginia Inn in Winter Park and the Wyoming Hotel in Orlando.&#13;
The Altamonte Hotel was destroyed by fire and the otheres were dismantled or razed to make way for other projects.&#13;
Hotel activity at The Alabama off Palmer Avenue on Lake Maitland came to a halt last year. It didn’t take long to catch a developer’s eye.&#13;
Developer Charles M. Booth Jr., who is handling the project in partnership with engineer Charles M. Simmerson, said it was just luck that he heard about the old hotel’s availability. Interest was immediate because the hotel seemed a natural for conversion to condominium apartments, he said.&#13;
But there was opposition from some area residents to the conversion. Objectors said they would prefer the old hotel be razed to make room for a single-family home development rather than have condominiums in their midst.&#13;
Despite opposition, the city OK’s the project arguing that the landmark should be saved and the proposed conversion would maintain the character and appearance of the hotel.&#13;
Booth said that everything but the exterior walls and interior load-bearing walls is being replaced to create the 22 units within the hotel. Three buildings on the grounds – the property totals 3.85 acres – also are being turned into condominiums. &#13;
The two and three-bedroom apartments (there’ll be one one-bedroom unit because of the way the design worked out) will range from 1,400 to 2,500 square feet. Prices will be lofty – from $140,000 to $250,000.&#13;
Designing the conversion is Lopatka-McQuaig and Associates, a Winter Park architectural firm.&#13;
The site was once the home of W.C. Temple, a businessman who first began coming to Winter Park in 1897 to escape the winters in Pennsylvania.&#13;
One of the organizers of the Florida Citrus Exchange – forerunner of Seald-Sweet Growers, an organization of citrus cooperatives – Temple served as mayor of Winter Park and was active in promoting the area. &#13;
The Temple orange is named for him.&#13;
In 1915, Temple sold the Lake Maitland proptery and in 1922 the hotel was built by a Joseph Kronenberger, a Cleveland businessman. </text>

The Alabama – A new look for a landmark&#13;
&#13;
In the old days, summers were quiet at the Alabama. It wasn’t until November that the resort hotel came to life, when the well-to-do visitors arrived from the North.&#13;
Orchestra conductor Leopold Stokowski, authors Thornton Wilder and Margaret Mitchell are among the notables who’ve made their winter residence at the Alabama.&#13;
This summer, thought, two years after its 56-year stint as a resort ended, a grand new life as a swank condominium has begun for the old Winter Park landmark. &#13;
Moving vans and furniture store delivery trucks lumber in and out of the Alabama’s back gates.&#13;
Decorators and assistants bustle about inside measuring for draperies and carpeting and planning furniture arrangements, as painters put the finishing touches on 22 new spacious, high-ceilinged condominiums.&#13;
Though it looks much the same outside – the walls are still covered with an ancient flowering fig vine – The Alabama’s wide verandas were skillfully enclosed and incorporated into the new condominiums.&#13;
Inside, all of the walls were knocked out to make way for the large new two – and three-bedroom condos, which sell for $150,000 to $300,000.&#13;
This new life will be a spiffier one for the old hotel. The 66-room hotel, which had served an ever-dwindling clientele until 1979, was comfortable nut not luxurious. It was a no-frills sort of a place with just bare essentials and a view of Lake Maitland.&#13;
Now the old-fashioned furnishings are gone, replaced with contemporary designer modulars in pale pastels. Sleek modern window coverings accommodate the Alabama’s old-fashioned double-hung windows. Spacious luxury bathrooms have replaced the tiled relics of the ‘20s.&#13;
For the reborn Alabama, its new life promises to be a plush one.</text>

Winter Park by Nancy Long&#13;
Memories are today’s guests at the Alabama&#13;
&#13;
Memories flowed over tea and sherry at the Alabama on a Sunday afternoon and this time Noella Schenck Menhinick was the guest instead of the hostess. The tea setting – old silver and bone china – was appropriate for the occasion, an afternoon to reminisce about the days when the Alabama Hotel was in itsheyday. &#13;
Joan Haas, whose enthusiasm about preserving vestiges of Winter Park’s early days got the Historical Commission rolling, invited local history buffs and several residents of the “new” Alabama condominiums to meet Mrs. Menhinick. She, her husband Henry Schenck, and father E.J. LaChance rant the hotel from 1932 to 1959.&#13;
Mrs. Menhinick’s stories were nonstop, to the delight of everyone. She told of the Christmas a shy Margaret Mitchell spent at the Alabama not long after “Gone With the Wind” was bringing her worldwide attention. When she spotted a guest reading her best seller, the author ducked out of the lobby to avoid being recognized.&#13;
She remembered the Depression days when everyone in Winter Park was walking around with a long face and she and her husband and father decided to open a night club at the Alabama to dispel some of the gloom. There was much clucking from old Winter Park then.&#13;
Running the Alabama was a “family affair,” said Mrs. Menhinick, and her family treated guests like family too. On Christmas it was traditional for everyone to exchange gifts in front of a roaring fire in the large lobby.&#13;
In 1982, at the age of 81, Mrs. Menhinick put her vivid memories in writing in the “Old Alabama Hotel,” published by Anna Publishing Inc. of Ocoee.&#13;
At 86, the charming and witty Noella Menhinick tells those she meets she’s getting more valuable every year. “There are so few of us left,” she says with a twinkle, “that we’ve become valuable antiques.”&#13;
Another memorable event that looked back to Winter Park’s roots was held in November. It was the dedication of a plaque recognizing the generosity of the city’s major benefactor, Charles Hosmer Morse. &#13;
Mr. Morse, a pioneer in American industry (Fairbanks, Morse) as well as in Winter Park, gave the city its Central Park, the Winter Park Country Club and golf course and one of the first city hall buildings. His granddaughter Jeannette McKean and her husband Hugh have carried on the tradition of beautifying the city. One of the world’s most important collections of the art of Louis C. Tiffany is housed in their museum, the Morse Museum, just blocks from where the dedication ceremony was held in the park. &#13;
Many first families turned out and Jean Shannon took an honored spot on stage to tell childhood anecdotes about the man so warmly revered by the small town at the beginning of this century.&#13;
&#13;
- Since this column’s devoted to history, recognition should go to the ongoing efforts of a handful of residents to cite the buildings that have played an important part in the city’s development.&#13;
In fact, the Historic Preservation Commission and Heritage Council goes beyond its program to recognize homes and commercial buildings and concerns itself with the whole ambiance of Winter Park – its neighborhoods and parks, commercial areas and entrances to the city, brick streets and traffic patterns.</text>

Putting it back the way it was – Couple recreates an era in their landmark condo&#13;
&#13;
By Denise Salvaggio&#13;
of the Sentinel Staff&#13;
&#13;
The Alabama Hotel spent its first 58 years as a winter resort of the rich and famous. When the Mission-style landmark on tranquil Lake Maitland was converted to a 22-unit luxury condominium in 1980-1981, it attracted Winter Park history buffs Rick and Joyce Appelquist.&#13;
The Appelquists were enamored of the old hotel’s heritage, shaped by such visitors as authors Margaret Mitchell and Thornton Wilder, conductor Leopold Stokowski and a smattering of European aristocrats. The couple bough a three bedroom, two bath second floor unit when it was an unfinished shell.&#13;
“Our intent was to restore our suite as closely as possible to the original,” said Mrs. Appelquist, a Winter Park interior designer. “We’re not into the new.”&#13;
Working with project architect Dale Parsons, they continued the thoughtful renovation that helped the four-story building keep the best of the old while giving it new grandeur. The Alabama recently was named to the National Register of Historic Places.&#13;
“Joyce had pretty strong input,” said Parsons. “I consulted with her from an architectural, engineering level – letting her know whether or not what she wanted could be done.”&#13;
Prices for the Alabama’s unites in 1981 ranged from $125,000 to $350,000. Not counting the allowance for paint and wallcoverings the Appelquists received, improvements for their 2,300 square-foot until cost between $30,000 and $40,000. &#13;
One option Mrs. Appelquist had in planning the interior was to combine the keeping room (which functions as a parlor) and the dining room for a more spacious, formal area. The room features windows along the back wall and a skylight.&#13;
“I chose to keep the rooms separate,” she said. “It made the dining area smaller, but it’s still very congenial for entertaining purposes.&#13;
The unassuming character of the Alabama’s original 66 rooms belied its impressive guest list. Through research, Mrs. Appelquist discovered the original lobby (which has been divided into condominium units) boasted the hotel’s most distinctive interior architecture. &#13;
Deciding to recreate the lobby’s thick walls, arched doorways and molding in their unit, Mrs. Appelquist went one step further. She reinterpreted design elements popular in the 1920s to evoke an impression of an elegant home of the era.&#13;
Archways are used to unify the entry with the living and dining areas. Four arches are visible from the entry. Toward the right, is the doorway into the dining room. The wall between the dining and keeping rooms is 16 ½ inches thick, as are the wall and doorway into the living rooms.&#13;
The two thick walls add a substantial feeling to the passages, recalling old construction techniques and the hotel’s atmosphere of quiet gentility. &#13;
Mrs. Appelquist noted another advantage.&#13;
“The walls make it very quiet,” she said. “If you’re in the first bedroom you can’t hear someone calling from the dining room.”&#13;
The arch theme is carried throughout. Doorways are reflected in the mirrored entry wall, while the living room carpet designed by Mrs. Appelquist feautres two broad stripes that curve at the corners. She  also designed an Oriental-influence grasscloth-covered table with broad curving legs. Arches are featured in the keeping room’s window cornices, visible from the entry and dining room.&#13;
Preserving the unit’s oak floors also was important. However, much of the wood was heavily pitted, and had become too dark with age to give the bright, outdoors effect she wanted. Her solution: installation of new light oak flooring in the entry, dining and keeping rooms and kitchen and carpeting over the original floors in the living room, hall and bedrooms.&#13;
“I wanted to save the flooring the most,” said Mrs. Appelquist. “I thought about trying to patch the flooring and have an area rug in the center where the floor was especially sad looking. But that didn’t work because there was too much overall damage. Also it was impossible to match the stain of the  new wood with the old.”&#13;
Mrs Appelquist had wooden plantation shutters made for all of the unit’s windows facing the front of the property and standard shutters made for those facing the back. Shutters emphasize different window sizes, and recall a Florida era when they were the primary means of controlling breezes and light.&#13;
The old hotel’s bathrooms had small windows. When individual rooms were combined into condominium units, the small windows wound up in living rooms and bedrooms. Shutters helped tie all of the windows together while respecting their individual character.&#13;
“I didn’t want to lose the distinction of the small window by camouflaging it with drapes,” Mrs. Appelquist said. “I think it’s interesting that we have a former bathroom in our living room.”&#13;
Moldings and baseboards were replaced in all rooms. Those in the living and dining rooms are narrower than the original to make the ceiling appear higher. Dentil molding – so called because the pattern resembles teeth – is used in the living and dining rooms. Molding in other areas of the house match the original. &#13;
To further reinterpret in the 1920s environment, the living room has sky blue walls and a forest green ceiling that pull in nature’s color scheme from the vines, trees and sky just outside the windows.&#13;
Carpet colors of silver-gray, green and peach copper reflect shades popular during the art deco period. For the dining room, Mrs. Appelquist designed a circular frosted etched glass tabletop with a calla lily pattern.&#13;
“We tried to pick up in every piece of furniture what the Alabama must have been like in that day and time,” Mrs. Appelquist said. “I wanted to collect enough material to know how to carry out the theme and renovate the suite to that period as much as we could.”&#13;
One feature Mrs. Appelquist like about the unit was the ceiling heights that vary from room to room. Differences in height range from about a half-inch to several inches.&#13;
“I guess all of the rooms were a little different, just as modern hotel rooms are. Each one had its own personality,” Mrs. Appelquist said.&#13;
“If the South gets knocked for anything, it’s the lack of architectural statements that would satisfy those from Northern backgrounds,” said Rick Appelquist, who is a real estate broker and investor. “We like the Alabama because architecturally, it didn’t feel like the typical condo.”&#13;
&#13;
New plantation shutters (left) on original living room window give view of Alabama’s thick vines. Arched doorway (below) with 16 ½ inch thick wall between dining room and keeping room recreates those in the Alabama’s original lobby, adding a 1920s ambiance. New oak floor and baseboards replace originals which had become heavily pitted, and had become too dark with age to give the bright, outdoors effect the Appelquists wanted.&#13;
&#13;

Small window indicates part of area was once hotel roomm bathroom. Shades areas in floor plan (below) indicate rooms shown.&#13;
&#13;
The Alabama close up&#13;
Exterior architectural details abound in the Alabama condominium. Thick fig vines cover walls (above). Original materials were retained where possible. What couldn’t be saved was recreated, such as the Victorian-style clubhouse’s pillars (right). A door (below) leads to a courtyard, added to each first-floor unit during conversion. Courtyards provide a buffer between windows and parking lot.&#13;

Dining In Old Fashioned Elegance at The Alabama Hotel&#13;
&#13;
Seated at a camellia accented table overlooking the manicured grounds leading down to Lake Maitland, one is infused with a sense of tranquil well-being. &#13;
There is a quiet softness about the Alabama Hotel’s dining room that  transports guests away from the nags of daily life back to a time characterized by gentility. With finger bowls, and camellias, the Alabama’s dining room is tangible nostalgia. &#13;
Its unique ambiance is not by accident. Darrell Micque, maitre d’ presides over the dining room with impeccable care and attention to detail. He is loved by his loyal hotel guests many of whom have followed him from the Virginia Inn to the Seminole Hotel to the Alabama. This is his eighteenth season in Winter Park. When the Alabama’s season is over he and his family return for the summer to their home in Camden, Maine where he is with the White Hall Inn.&#13;
Darrell not only knows all of this guests by name, but also makes it a point to remember preferred tables from season to season, eating schedules, etc. In his words, “It is like one big happy family.”&#13;
This is chef Mary Tanke’s first season at the Alabama, but she is also dedicated to preserving the Hotel’s special brand of hospitality. Upon arriving on November 1, after a stint in Miami’s posh French restaurant, the Depot, she poured over 56 years of menus, and thought the recipes are her own, the menus are largely the same, offering quality home cooked food.&#13;
Lunch consists of four courses; dinner five, and within each course there are many tempting choices.&#13;
This is not the place for the indecisive. The menu varies for each meal from day to day but with a few traditional constants.&#13;
Every other Thursday guests are offered a New England dinner. The Friday noon mainstay is beef stew and lemon meringue pie. Sunday noon promises prime ribs, and Sunday night oyster stew. Wednesday nights are always special. And on the subject of tradition, Ann Davis, who has been at the Alabama for 25 seasons, makes legendary anadama bread.&#13;
Although tradition is mentioned over and over in Fiddler of the Roof caps, there are some intriguing plans in the works. Such as elaborating on facilities for wedding receptions which is a natural step what with the Hotel’s proximity to Kraft Azalea Gardens. We can also look forward to the opening of the Temple Dining Room with its beautiful leaded glass windows and exquisite architectural detail.&#13;
One could not call any changes innovations. Rather they are enhancements. The community is fortunate that new manager, Steve Snyder is devoted to maintaining the same high standards that have made the Alabama Hotel nationally known and revered. &#13;
So if finger bowls, camellias and candlelight are your cup of tea, the Alabama Hotel dining room should become part of your TRADITION!&#13;

&#13;
Sale of the Alabama Hotel is contingent upon city approval to turn the building into 22 condominium units.&#13;
&#13;
Alabama Hotel plans stir opposition&#13;
&#13;
by Donna Eyring&#13;
&#13;
The Winter Park Planning and Zoning Commission last week voted unanimously to recommend that the City Commission approve a zoning change that would permit conversion of the landmark Alabama Hotel into condominiums.&#13;
But some residents who live near the hotel, which overlooks Lake Maitland, would rather see it torn down and replaced with single-family homes than turned into 22 condominiums. They said the condominiums would increase residential density of the area and bring traffic problems to narrow neighborhood streets.&#13;
The commission will consider the rezoning request at its meeting at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday.&#13;
Charles Simmerson, Winter Park, and Charles Booth, Orlando, have asked that the zoning be changed from R1-AA – single family residential – to Planned Unity Residential District, thus permitting conversion of the 66-room hotel into condominiums. City Planner Jeff Briggs said the contract to purchase the 57-year-old hotel from Sam Azarian of Racine, Wis., is contingent on the zoning change.&#13;
Briggs endorsed the proposal and recommended the planning commission approve it on two conditions – that no change be made to the existing architectural facade and that no fencing be permitted along the property on Alabama Drive. &#13;
The planning commission added one other condition at the request of adjacent property owner Charles Rosenfelt – that a proposed swimming pool be surrounded by a landscape buffer or be moved.&#13;
Rosenfelt has purchased about 3.5 acres of the Alabama Hotel grounds and said a community swimming pool might be a nuisance to the homeowner near the boundary line. Rosenfelt has a preliminary plat pending before the city commission to subdivide the property for 10 single-family homes. &#13;
Briggs said the proposal’s strongest point was that it was consistent with Comprehensive Development Plans, which encourage developers to preserve landmarks through the use of PURD zoning.&#13;
“After rehabilitation, you will have 22 families living there … who will have their life savings committed to preservation and maintenance of the building and grounds.” Briggs said.&#13;
Richard Barratt, of Architects Design Group of Florida Inc., said the plans would not involve mjor changes to the outside of the structure, other than repairing damaged stucco, re-roofing, and extension of some units onto an existing veranda. &#13;
The plans also include renovation of the W.C. Temple home, built in 1876, a summer porch which was once attached to the home, and a caretaker’s cottage into three single-family residences. They also plan to repair the existing boat dock on Lake Maitland.&#13;
For parking, 27 covered parking spaces with a 25-foot foot landscsape buffer and 24 open spaces scattered around the property are proposed.&#13;
J.S. Showalter, 1461 Via Tuscany, said, “Quite frankly I don’t welcome the idea of the Alabama becoming a condominium.&#13;
“I can’t view the change to PURD as anything other than an economic advantage to those who requested it,” Showalter said, “We always felt that we she (the Alabama Hotel) went, as one day she must, we’d rather have R1-AA there.”&#13;
B.C. Pyle, who lives on Mayfield Drive near the hotel, said he feared conversion to condominiums would bring traffic problems to the area.&#13;
“If that structure is to be change – in spite of the fact that I hate to see a historic building demolished – if changed, it should be changed to single-family,” Pyle said.&#13;
But George Miller, who recently moved into a new home near the hotel, said he would rather see the hotel become condominiums. &#13;
“Given a known edifice, a mutually agreeable edifice and one we’ve learned to live with, I’d rather see it become condominiums than to settle for the ultimate destruction of the building and take our chances… on differing structures of varying styles.&#13;
“To replace it isn’t necessarily an improvement,” he added.</text>
