Ua pani ʻia ka hōkele ʻo 1868 i ka makahiki 2003; ua wāwahi ʻia ia i ka makahiki 2005, a ua wehe ʻia kahi hale hou i ka makahiki 2010 ma ka pūnaewele like i paʻa ka hapa nui o ke ʻano kumu a me ka helehelena, a me ka inoa kumu. Hoʻomaopopo ʻia ke kumu a me ke kūkulu hou ʻana no kā lākou hoʻolālā ʻana i Victorian kuhikuhipuʻuone a me ka ʻokoʻa melemele ʻana.

ʻO ka Ocean House kumu ka hale hōkele hope loa o Victorian-era ma ka ʻāina nui ʻo Rhode Island.

Ua kūkulu mua ʻia ka Hale Moana ma 1868. Ua liʻiliʻi ia ma mua o kekahi hotel Aia ma Watch Hill, akā ua hoʻonui ʻia me nā mea hoʻohui he nui i loko o nā makahiki. ʻO ka Ocean House kumu kahi kūkulu kikowaena i ka Watch Hill Historic District, i helu ʻia ma ka National Register of Historic Places.

I Malaki 2004, ua kūʻai ʻo Girouard Associates o New Kanaana, Connecticut, i ka hale mai nā hoʻoilina o ka ʻohana Louis D. Miller, ka mea nona ka hōkele mai 1938. Ua manaʻo ʻo Girouard Associates e hoʻohiolo i ka hale o Ocean a kūkulu i ʻelima mau hale kai nui nui, akā he kūʻē ukali ʻia. Loaʻa kahi mea kūʻai hou i hope loa, a ʻoiai e mālama ʻia ka ʻuhane o ka hale kumu, ʻaʻole ka hale maoli.

ʻO nā mea e pili ana i ka pani ʻana o ka Ocean House kumu i komo pū me ka nele o nā pono o ke au hou, ke kūlana dilapidated, a me ka hoʻokō ʻole ʻia o nā code hale i kēia manawa. ʻO ka Ocean House kumu i hana ʻia i kēlā me kēia kau, hāmama ma kahi o ʻekolu mau mahina o ka makahiki, a ua nele ka hale i ka hoʻomehana, ka ea ʻana, a me ka ʻōnaehana ea. I nā makahiki i hala o kāna hana, hoʻohana ʻole ʻia nā papahele ʻelua kiʻekiʻe a he 59 mau lumi wale nō i lawelawe ʻia ma waho o kāna kumu 159. ʻAʻohe o ke keʻena ʻelemakule i nā pono kūpono, nā lawelawe lawelawe, nā pono egress, nā pono komo lima kīnā ʻole, a me nā kaʻa e kū ai nā lula hou. Ua hōʻike kahi ʻatikala nūpepa i kāna kūlana hope loa: “ʻAlau ke alapiʻi nui i kahi ʻole. Kulu ka wai ua i loko o nā paia a holo i lalo i nā ʻauwai i hoʻopili ʻia i kaula. Ua haki ka ʻeleka ʻaka. ”

ʻAʻole kūpono ka hale 138 mau makahiki me nā code o ka hale e kū nei a me ke ola. Ua hoʻopilikia ʻia kona papa lāʻau e ka hoʻokomo pono ʻole ʻana o ka uila, ke kinoea, a me nā pono paipu, a me ka hoʻonohonoho hou ʻana o nā keʻena e hoʻopili i nā lua lua. Ua hoʻoponopono hou ʻia nā code ahi o Rhode Island a ua ikaika loa ka hoʻokō ʻia ʻana ma hope o ke ahi hale kalapu ʻo Station Station 2003, e hana ana i nā hemahema i hiki ʻole ke kiʻi ʻia ma Ocean House. Ka hoʻolohe pono ʻana i nā kūlana palekana ola o kēia manawa, e like me nā puka aniani o ka makani pāhili me nā mōlina hou, kahi kahua paʻa paʻa hou me nā kaula hao i loko o nā wahi āpau, e hemo ana i nā pena alakaʻi a me waho o ke kēpau, a me ka hemo ʻana o ka moʻo o loko e koi ana i ka wāwahi o nā hoʻopau kūloko.

I ka makahiki 2004, ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia ka hale o ka Moana e wehe ma muli o nā hemahema o ke code; pau ka hana o ka hōkele kumu i ka makahiki 2003 a ua kūʻai ʻia. Ua aʻo ke kaiāulu iā Malaki 2004 ua hoʻolālā kahi mea hoʻomohala mai waho o ke kaona e hoʻoneʻe i ka Ocean House a kūkulu i ʻelima mau hale ma kona wahi, no laila ua hoʻomaka ka poʻe hoʻonohonoho i kahi hana e hoʻopakele i ka hale a mālama i ke komo kai ākea a me ke kahakai. Ua komo kēia mau mea hoʻonohonoho i nā ʻelele mai Preserve Rhode Island, Rhode Island Historical Preservation, a me Heritage Commission, a me ka National Trust. Ua ʻike ʻia kekahi mea kūʻai aku nāna i manaʻo he kūpono ʻole a maikaʻi ʻole hoʻi ka hana ʻana i ka hale a me ke code, akā ua hoʻohiki ʻo ia e kūkulu hou ia mea mai ka honua aʻe. Ua wāwahi ʻia ka hale kumu, a kūkulu ʻia kahi hale hou ma ka pūnaewele.

Ua kū kūʻē nā mea hoʻolālā papahana i ke kūʻē me ka wāwahi ʻia ʻana o ka Ocean House, akā ua kūpale maikaʻi lākou no ke kūkulu hou ʻana. Ua manaʻo lākou i kahi hale i hoʻohālikelike ʻia ma hope o ka Ocean House kumu ʻoiai ʻo ia kāna zenith, ma kahi o 1908. E ʻae kēia i kahi hōkele he 49 lumi e kūpono i ka pālākiō i kāna mau alanui e pili ana, ʻoiai e hoʻonui ana i ke kahakai kahi e hiki ai ke hoʻokipa ʻia he 23 mau condominiums Hiki iā ia ke loaʻa nā mea lawelawe a me nā lawelawe i hiki ke hana i ka papahana a me ka hiki ke hoʻokele waiwai.

Ua wāwahi ʻia ka hale o ka Moana Ocean kumu i Kēkēmapa 2005 a ua wehe ʻia ka hale aʻe ma 2010.

ʻO ka hoʻolālā hou he 50,000 kapuaʻi kuea ka nui ma mua o ke kumu ma 156,000 kapuaʻi kuea. Kūkulu hou ia i ka hapa nui o ka massing kumu a hoʻihoʻi i kekahi mau kikoʻī kikoʻī i lawe ʻia i ka wā o ka hana mau o ka hale, e like me ka hale o ka mansard kumu a me kahi kapuahi lobby. Hoʻohui pū ia i nā mea hou, e like me nā pono o ka honua a me nā ʻeheu hou ʻelua e hoʻonui ana mai ka hale nui, kahi pale pū kekahi i nā wahi noho kokoke mai nā hana hōkele.

Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka pono kumu, a mālama ʻia nā ana a me nā kiʻekiʻena, me ka nui a me ka wahi o nā puka aniani. ʻO nā ʻāpana maoli o ka hale kumu i mālama ʻia a hoʻohālikelike ka hoʻolālā i nā kolamu, nā poʻo nui, a me nā lāʻau. ʻO nā mea i loko o ka hiki o ke kanaka kahi wahie ʻoiai ke kikoʻī ʻole ʻia i waho o ka hiki ke hana ʻia i nā mea synthetic e maʻalahi e mālama.

ʻO nā wahi hou he 49 mau lumi kipa a me nā lumi hoʻokipa condominium noho he 23 a me nā keʻena hālāwai, spa, ʻūhā, kiʻowai, hale hoʻoikaika kino, a me nā hale ʻaina. Hoʻokomo pū ka hoʻolālā i nā lawelawe lawelawe e pono ai i kahi hale hou: nā lumi kuke hou, nā pae hoʻouka, nā lumi mīkini, nā koi egress ke ahi (e like me nā alapiʻi hou), a me nā limahana limahana.

ʻO Stanley Turkel ua koho ʻia ma ke ʻano he Historian of the Year e ka Histories Hotels of America, he polokalamu manawaleʻa o ka National Trust for Historic Preservation, nona ka inoa i kapa ʻia ai ma 2020 a me 2015. ʻO Turel ka mea aʻoaʻo kūkā nui loa i hoʻolaha ʻia ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Hoʻohana ʻo ia i kāna hana kūkākūkā hōkele e lawelawe ana ma ke ʻano he loea ʻike i nā hihia e pili ana i ka hōkele, hāʻawi i ka hoʻokele waiwai a me ka kūkā kamaʻilio hōkele. Ua hōʻoia ʻia ma ke ʻano he Master Hotel Supplier Emeritus e ka Educational Institute o ka American Hotel and Lodging Association. [pale ʻia ka leka uila] 917-628-8549
