Too true! In the world of finance anything can happen in sixty days! But lets hope this goes through because the Cosmo has had nothing but vampires for owners over the last ten years and it deserves a better fate. It really would be a great thing for the square and the City if it was turned into a first class hotel!

Amen to that!  With a nice restaurant, too--and valet parking!

Yep--it's kinda like 1960s-1970s South Florida in the Ozark foothills....

It is rather like South Florida but at least it's not pink like the Ocala Hilton!

My wife used to do some of those color studies on hotels.  She did one for a hotel in Bermuda and when we went there we rode past it on a scooter and there it was, all pinked out. She had only worked with photographs and never actually seen it prior to that point!
