So many of the big hotels have burnt down or been pulled down. Thanks for posting those pictures. I've walked past the Collingwood many times, and I seem to remember I went to a couple of school dances there.Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995486809946665574.post-2169446902180802682012-02-16T11:33:50.222+00:002012-02-16T11:33:50.222+00:00Yes I know Bella, some for the good and some not s...Yes I know Bella, some for the good and some not so good:)ann @ studiohydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615115294267727281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995486809946665574.post-60017476147933426532012-02-16T11:32:13.336+00:002012-02-16T11:32:13.336+00:00That's a good idea Pat, I'll be ready for ...That's a good idea Pat, I'll be ready for it:)ann @ studiohydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615115294267727281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995486809946665574.post-16187872566017039892012-02-16T10:36:09.979+00:002012-02-16T10:36:09.979+00:00I wasn't sure where this hotel was.

There is a modern style being built at the moment, overlooking the harbour, so change looks to be afoot! Here's hoping they do get on and build this new Hotel and don't come up with some 'excuse' not to, I wouldn't want to think they had just taken the opportunity to pull an old building down!!ann @ studiohydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615115294267727281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995486809946665574.post-76587129259598930492012-02-16T09:43:19.662+00:002012-02-16T09:43:19.662+00:00I hope the new hotel will be as beautiful as the o...I hope the new hotel will be as beautiful as the old one was.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715473069364081174noreply@blogger.com
