Continuing in the same area and
Washington Hotel are three great photos from the Ralph Sartor photo
collection taken during the construction of the Washington Hotel and
swimming pool. The photo above shows the framework of the new
Washington Hotel and Christ Church in the background. The ocean
fed swimming pool is being used, but still under construction. I can't
believe that this guy is diving at such a high level when the pool at
this time wasn't that deep. I have posted photos in the past
this pool (click
here) showing the completed pool and then a couple of photos that I
took in 2003 of what is left of the pool today. The bottom photo
shows the pool close to being completed but the seawall isn't up yet and
the hotel is still being built. The construction day workers had a
good time back in the day.
