Another sign of getting old
An amusing column in today's Boston Globe contains this sentence: "Back in the Paleozoic Era, about the time of its last full-scale renovation, the Park Plaza wasn't a bad hotel; these days, it's more exhausted than just tired, catering mostly to downscale conventions, airline crews, and people who don't know any better." Now, I can't say if Brian's right about its current condition, but a while back my wife and I started our honeymoon there. This was back in the "Paleozoic Era" after that renovation. It seems the hotel recently hosted the "Fetish Fair Fleamarket", and a visiting family reported that "As the elevator door opened, in walked a woman in a leather bustier leading, by a dog leash and collar, a man wearing nothing but a string thong." I guess that would have added some spice to a honeymoon ...Posted by markj at January 20, 2004 07:10 AM
