Stemming the tide of vulgarity in the general public.

Back in the Game!



The girls in the typing pool will no doubt remember that I spent a large amount of work time looking at a website devoted to abandoned buildings in Detroit. One of those buildings was the lovely, but derelict, Book-Cadillac Hotel. At the time, it seemed to be destined to meet the same fate at the JL Hudson Department Store or the Detroit Statler Hotel.

But guess what? After years of being closed, and more years of renovation, it is now reopened as a Westin!!!

To give you an idea of the scope of work that was involved, check out these before and after pictures of the Ballroom.






Welcome back, Book-Cadillac! I may just have to take a trip to Detroit.
