Pink Palace deal great step forward
Hallelujah!
Word that the Pink Palace will receive its long overdue renovation is terrific.
The dowager of 10th Street West is saved.
I had my doubts.
The 1920s era Manatee River Hotel has been an eyesore since it became vacant almost seven years ago.
It was hardly a welcoming sight to motorists coming south across the Green Bridge.
Despite the City of Bradenton’s efforts to halt its deterioration, the historic eight-story building had languished to the point where it seemed the wrecking ball was inevitable.
Perhaps the time had come to put it out of its misery.
If this deal with developers had fallen through?
Kaboom!
Not anymore.
