Candice Woo Did an interesting post today on lastblogonearth.com
Here’s a summary….
The Sportsman’s Lodge, a 60’s-era motel on Rosecrans, has been given a swanky makeover(they’re calling it vintage-modern) and a new name, The Pearl. A friend and I were wandering around last night and popped in for a peek. Rooms are already available but the lounge/restaurant doesn’t officially open until the last weekend of September. What I’m looking forward to: an open-pool policy, Wednesday night “Dive-In” movies(like Esther Williams’ flicks) shown on an elevated screen and discounted rooms offered to folks who overindulge at the bar and need to crash in one of the mirrored-ceiling bedrooms.
