Fred La Bour - Plaza Hotel

Plaza Hotel

In a 1991 New York Times article, LaBour was quoted in opposition to Donald Trump's plans to convert the Plaza Hotel to condominiums. "A little bitty room like this? No way. I for one would probably take my business to Newark. The value of the Plaza cannot be determined by dollars and cents. There's a sense of place that transcends the bottom line."

Famous quotes containing the word hotel:

    I’ve always thought a hotel ought to offer optional small animals.... I mean a cat to sleep on your bed at night, or a dog of some kind to act pleased when you come in. You ever notice how a hotel room feels so lifeless?
    Anne Tyler (b. 1941)
