The Article is written as an historical account of the Georgian Terrace’s past, from its creation to the 1990’s. The author goes through the various themes the hotel has had throughout the decades. At its inception the terrace was meant to remind visitors of a parisian hotel, with all the amenities that celebrities of the time knew and loved. From there it became known for it’s music scene by remaking its, grand ballroom into the electric ballroom. A popular destination for all of the important musicians of the day. The Author mentions its  decline in the 1980’s, a decline which ended with its doors being closed, seemingly forever. She continues with the National Register of Historic Places naming it an historical site and its renewal. Originally brought back as luxury apartments, it soon saw its return to hotel status in which state it remains. This article gives me a great insight into the past of the Georgian Terrace, and will allow me to reference its history directly.
