Talk:New Yorker Hotel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Not the Best...

"Different proposals were offered for the use of the building, and in 1975 it was purchased by the Unification Church, who converted the 30th floor into individual apartments for the True Children. Under new management and following extensive renovation, the New Yorker Hotel finally re-opened its doors as a hotel on 1 June 1994. Since 2000 it has been part of the Ramada franchise. The hotel is currently undergoing another phase of major renovations as evidenced by a large stuffed Polar Bear holding a sign that reads "Please Bear Wittus"."

Is this best that anyone can do? What happened that the Unification Church passed it to the Ramada Group? Is a polar bear really the best evidence that renovations are underway?

This article is clearly written by someone who has very little knowledge of the building. You know, like maybe people would like to know the name of the architect, since it is a building of note? D'ya think?

Lame wikiality. Typical truthiness. This page is ranked higher than the official page for the hotel, which of course has more info. Your page ranking is gamed, and dishonest. You have no right to steal traffic away from better quality sites.

The NYT reported that the hotel is now opened and still owned by the UC. Referenced in the article. Please put more info in. I will see if I can find the name of the architect. Steve Dufour (talk) 03:10, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
