Holy sh*t! It's 2AM; and I just started the damn thing. It wil take a few days as I research more of this inn's illustrious history. Our family has been involved with Cherry Hill for a half-century; and there is much to say as I go back to the Cherry Hill Library's township history room in the basement... Which my parents have contributed many artifacts to, including interior & exterior photos from our family's photo archives that I will donate to this site.

Hi. Looking in the New York Times archives, I find a number of mentions. An article from January 29, 2006 by Richard Strauss titled "Seeking a Sense of Place" says: "Already one landmark hotel, the Rickshaw Inn, a flamboyant pagodalike structure with a gold-leaf roof, has been demolished, replaced by a Mercedes-Benz dealership.". So I'd say a local landmark does not qualify for speedy deletion. Hoping that helps, William Pietri 07:13, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you... I'm going to bed -- It's past 2AM! Discpad 07:17, 9 March 2007 (UTC) Dan Schwartz

Incidentally, I'm building a history of the western part of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, including Garden State Park, the Latin Casino, the Cherry Hill Inn, and the Rickshaw Inn.
