Would you like to stay at a new luxury Hotel the next time you visit New York City(something I don't ever intend to do again) that can boast having Norman Mailer, Edie Sedgwick and Charlie Parker as former guests?
You may consider staying at a new Italian Renaissance-style luxury hotel that may be coming to the East side of Manhattan.
That is if the city can convince a developer to convert the existing building. I smell another great opportunity for the Donald Trump. He could even become a resident.
The city tried to interest someone in creating more condos but couldn't find any takers.
The reason the city is so involved is that the building is the former Bellevue Psych ward.
It’s a great location to serve as accommodations for Medical professionals and families of patients at nearby hospitals and could have facilities for a convention center.
Dr. Frederick Covan who was chief psychologist for 14 years said they had fewer Sax players than ax murderers. "Our patients were not normal New York neurotics, but very sick people-otherwise known as crazy".
Normal New York neurotics would be crazy as a shit house rat in the mid west but that's beside the point.
One other famous resident was Mark David Chapman, John Lennon's murderer.
Dr. Covan also said that though the place might be unsettling to some the location would be a draw to a lot of people. This is from a New York crazy doctor who has probably seen it all.
Boy I can't wait for the advertising. The Bellevue Hilton, it isn't Paris, but she should stay there.
Hey, some old residents will probably recommend the place and come back to visit.
"it isn't Paris, but she should stay there"
ROFLMAO!!!!!
