    Fond memories of this hotel in 1964. I worked my first hotel job here & went on to a career in the industry. The staff quarters were along (Congress?) Street…with the women on the top floor and the men underneath on the second floor. I was the Midnight to 8 AM Bellman & stood my post at the elevator in the lobby until about 3 AM…then had to mop that entire 1st floor…all the marble…every night! Loved it! Carl McIntyre bought the property that winter (Coincidently, he baptized me as a baby) and I returned to work at The Windsor, across the street, for quite a few summers in the 60's.
