Mōʻaukala Hotele: ʻO ka Hotel Hotel Bossert ma mua i ʻike ʻia

Ua kūkulu ʻia ka Hotel Bossert ma 1909 e Louis Bossert, kahi mea nui lāʻau ʻo Brooklyn, ma ke ʻano he hōkele noho ma Brooklyn Heights. ʻO ka hōkele 14-moʻolelo, hōkele 224-lumi, i kapa ʻia ʻo "Waldorf-Astoria o Brooklyn," na nā ʻ Jehovah'slelo a Iēhova mai ka makahiki 1984.

Ua hoʻolauleʻa ka Brooklyn Dodgers i ko lākou hoʻokūkū mua a hope loa o ka World Series i ka wā i lanakila ai lākou ma New York Yankees i ka makahiki 1955. Ma ke keʻena o ka Hotel Bossert, hoʻolauleʻa nā poʻe aloha Dodger delirious e ke mele ʻana "No He He Welly Good Fellow" No Walter Alston . ʻO Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese lāua ʻo Gil Hodges i laila e hoʻolauleʻa ai.

Ua ʻike ʻia ka Bossert no kāna Marine Roof kaulana, kahi hale ʻaina ʻelua pae kiʻekiʻe a me kahi hale kalapu me kahi motuka moana i hoʻolālā ʻia e Joseph Urban e ʻike nani ana iā Manhattan. I ke kauwela o 1933, e pāʻani ana ʻo Freddy Martin a me kāna ʻahamele no ka hulahula ʻana ma ka Marine Roof. Ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia lākou i ke kauwela e hiki mai ana, e pāʻani ana ʻo Freddy Martin a me ka poʻe hoʻokani pila ma ka hale St. Regis Roof ma ka St. Regis Hotel ma Manhattan.

I ka pau ʻana o ka makahiki 2009, ua lilo ke kahua hoʻokani pila kahiko o New York WQXR i kahua kūleʻa ʻole, kākoʻo ʻia e ka poʻe hoʻolohe ma 105.9 FM. E manaʻoʻiʻo paha ʻaʻole paha, ua hāpai mua ʻia ke kahua e ka luna hoʻolaha ʻo Elliot Sanger a me ka loea loea ʻo John Hogan no ka ʻaina awakea ma ka Bossert ma 1935. I ka neʻe ʻana o ka Brooklyn Dodgers 'Boys of Summer' i Los Angeles, ʻo ka Bossert kekahi o nā hōkele he nui ua loaʻa a hōʻano hou ʻia nā hōʻike a Iēhova ma Brooklyn Heights i ka wā 70 a 80 paha. I ka makahiki 1984, i ka wā i kūʻai mai ai nā hōʻike, ua hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻia ka hale i kahi kūlana kaumaha e ka makahiki a me ka mālama ʻole ʻia. Ua hana maikaʻi maikaʻi loa ka poʻe hōʻike, e hana hou ana i nā puka aniani mahogany a hoʻololi i 2,500 kapuaʻi kuea o ke kinikini ʻo Bottachino Classico me ka pōhaku mai ka hale kuʻi ʻItalia mua. Ua loaʻa ka hoʻihoʻi hou ʻia i kahi "Preservation Award" mai ka New York Landmarks Conservancy ma 1991 a me kahi makana kūikawā no ka Architectural Excellence mai ka Hui ʻo Brooklyn Heights i ka makahiki 1993. I ka manawa i hoʻokau ai ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Watch Tower i ka Bossert ma ka mākeke, ua loaʻa ia e nā mea hoʻomohala waiwai ʻO Joseph Chetrit lāua ʻo David Bistricer no kahi $ 81 miliona i koho ʻia ma 2012. ʻEkolu mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua koho lākou i ka hui ʻo Argentina ʻO Fën Hoteles e hana i ka mokupuni Hotel Bossert ma lalo o ka inoa ʻo Esplendor Brooklyn.

Ua kūkulu ʻia ka Hōkele St. George a me nā hale pili e pili ana ma waena o 1885 a me 1929. I ia manawa ʻo St. George ka hōkele nui loa o ka lāhui me 2,623 lumi. ʻO ka hōkele mua he ʻumi papa i hoʻomohala ʻia e Kāpena William Tumbridge i lawelawe ma ka Union Navy i ke Kaua Kivila. Ua hoʻolālā ʻia e ka mea hoʻolālā ʻo Augustus Hatfield a laila hoʻonui ʻia e Tumbridge me nā hale pili e hoʻolālā ʻia e ka mea kālai ʻo Montrose Morris.

Noho ʻo St. George complex kahi kūlanakauhale āpau a me kāna hale nui he 30, ʻo St. George Tower, he hale kōkua ʻo ia kahi hale noho. Ua hoihoi ʻo ia i nā mea kālaiʻāina, nā hōkū kiʻiʻoniʻoni, nā mea kaulana, nā ʻōlapa a me nā moho pelekikena āpau. E hoʻomanaʻo ʻo Brooklyn wale nō ke kūlanakauhale ʻehā o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.

E like me ka mea i hōʻike ʻia e Christopher Gray, ka mea kākau moʻolelo ʻike nui o New York Times Streetscapes ma Kēkēmapa 29, 2002: "E like me nā hōkele ʻē aʻe ma mua o ka hiki ʻana mai o ka hale keʻena ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ua hāʻawi aku ʻo St. George i nā hale noho a me nā kamaʻāina paʻa mau. Ua kākau ka helu kanaka 1905 i ka ʻohana o ka mea kālepa chinaware kaulana ʻo Theodore Ovington, me kāna kaikamahine ʻo Mary White Ovington, 40, he haumāna puka no Radcliffe. I ka 1909, ʻo ia kekahi o nā hoʻokumu o ka National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP); ʻO kāna puke 1911 Half a Man e hoʻomālamalama nei i nā pilikia i kū ʻia e ʻAmelika ʻAmelika. ”

I ka makahiki 1914, ua kākau ʻo Mary Ovington i ka mea a ka National Association no ka holomua ʻana o ka poʻe kala e hoʻomaka ana a ma ka makahiki 1927, nā kiʻi paʻi kiʻi e pili ana iā James Weldon Johnson, Marcus Garvey, WEB DuBois, George Washington Carver, Langston Hughes, Paul Robeson a me 14 mau hanohano ʻAmelika ʻAmelika .

I ka makahiki 1922, ua loaʻa ka hale hōkele ʻo Bing & Bing i ka hōkele, a ma 1928 ua hoʻolālā ka hoʻolālā hale ʻo Emery Roth i kahi 30-lumi 1,000 lumi hou.

Ma loko o ka wā hauʻoli o ka hōkele mai ka 1930 a i ka 1950, ua noho ka pō ʻo Pelekikena Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy a me Johnson. ʻO nā mea kaulana ʻē aʻe me F. Scott Fitzgerald, Thomas Wolfe, abolitionist Henry Beecher a me Truman Capote. ʻO ka Colorama Ballroom kaulana kaulana o ka honua, i hoʻomālamalama ʻia me nā ʻōpuʻu multicolor he 1,000, ua ʻumeʻume i ka poʻe ʻōpio mai Manhattan e hulahula i nā kaukani mele kaulana. ʻO nā hale kūʻai i loko o nā hale kūʻai o kēlā me kēia ʻano, nā hale ʻaina, hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, 14 hale hālāwai a me nā ʻahaʻaina a me ka wai ʻauʻau wai nui loa o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Nā kiʻi ʻeleʻele a me keʻokeʻo ma nā paia o ke keʻena hoʻoikaika kino memorialized kipa ʻia e Esther Williams, Johnny Weismuller a me Buster Crabbe. Aia i loko o ka spa nā lumi mahu, nā kukuna lā, a me nā mīkini hoʻēmi kahiko, kekahi o ia mau mea i hoʻopili i ka ʻūlū huluhulu a hūnā ʻia kahi mea āpau akā ʻo ke poʻo o ka mea i hōʻino ʻia i loko o kahi ʻeke canvas mua.

I ka 1995, ma hope o nā makahiki o ka hōʻino a me ka foreclosure, ua hoʻopau ke ahi koʻikoʻi i ka hale kumu a hōʻino i nā hale e pili ana me ka hale kiaʻi. Ma hope o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana, he hale kōkua ʻo St. George Tower i kēia manawa. ʻO ka Weller Wing o ka St. George, kahi manawa e komo ai ka hōkele, kahi ʻāpana o ka Educational Housing Services (EHS) e hāʻawi ana i nā lawelawe hale moe i 1200 mau haumāna kula nui ma ka moku ʻo New York City.

Ma Malaki 28, 2010 ka mea hou aʻe i hōʻike ʻia ma ka New York Times:

No ka poʻe co-op e makemake nui i nā ala hou e hoʻonui ai i ka loaʻa kālā, e noʻonoʻo i ka mea a St. George Tower ma Brooklyn Heights i hoʻoholo ai e hana. ʻO ka papa kōlepa no ka Hale Tower, he hale 27-papa ma ke alanui 111 Hicks, i nānā i kekahi lā a hoʻoholo e kūʻai aku i ka home paʻa paʻa o nā pahu wai o ka hale no ka hoʻohana hou ʻana ma ke ʻano he penthouse he 30th papahele me ka hale o luna. ʻO ke kumu kūʻai $ 2.495 miliona.

E hana ʻia ka penthouse i kahi o nā wahi ʻoihana me nā paipu a me nā paia i hōʻike ʻole ʻia. Akā he puka aniani ko ka papahele a kaupaku a e like me kā Kevin Brown, pelekikena poʻokela poʻokela o Sotheby's International Realty a me ka mea kūʻai aku o ka co-op, "nā manaʻo hāʻule make" e kū pono ana i ke awa, Manhattan a me brownstone Brooklyn. "Lawe ʻia kou hanu ke nānā aku ʻoe i kēlā mau puka aniani," wahi a Mr. Brown. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua loaʻa i ka papa i ke ala nahenahe e hana i ka waiwai ma mua o kahi, a ua hala he mau mahina i ka ʻae ʻana mai ka keʻena o ka loio kuhina a me nā keʻena o nā hale o ke kūlanakauhale ma mua o ka waiho ʻana i kahi ma ka mākeke.

ʻO ka 66-by-53-foot-foot i koe kahi pahu i koe, e pahu ʻia i loko. Ua kūkākūkā ka papa me kahi ʻoihana uila e noʻonoʻo i nā ala e lawe ai i kekahi o nā hale kiʻekiʻena o ka hale i ka papa 30.

"E makemake ana kekahi e koi i kahi mea paʻakikī e hana i kahi mea ma aneʻi," wahi a Mr. Brown. "Akā, e kaupalena ʻia wale lākou e ko lākou manaʻo a me kā lākou puke ʻeke."

ʻEhā mau mea mākaʻikaʻi haole i make, he ʻeha i hōʻeha ʻia i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka bus o Cuba

ʻO ka mea kākau, ʻo Stanley Turkel, kahi mana i ʻike ʻia a kūkākūkā pū me ia i ka ʻoihana hōkele. Hoʻohana ʻo ia i kāna hōkele, hoʻokipa a me ka hana aʻoaʻo aʻoaʻo loea i ka hoʻokele waiwai, nā loiloi hana a me ka maikaʻi o nā ʻaelike franchise hotel a me nā kuleana kākoʻo litigation. ʻO nā mea kūʻai aku nā mea hōkele, nā mea hoʻopukapuka a me nā ʻoihana hōʻaiʻē.
