Text Any textual data included in the document Sentinel Star, September 14, 1977 Under false name, the maestro visited Winter Park so sons could go fishing By Sumner Rand, Sentinel Star Staff Leopold Stokowski spent a week at the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park back in 1961 and this reporter was sent over to interview the maestro. The interview, however, had to be conducted over the telephone from the hotel lobby to Stokowski’s room. He had his two young sons by Gloria Vanderbilt with him, and he said he didn’t want to jeopardize his custody privileges (stemming from his 1955 divorce from Gloria Vanderbilt) by involving them in any publicity or photographs. He was, in fact, registered under another name at the hotel. The then 74-year-old Stokowski, though, was most pleasant on the telephone, chatting for nearly 10 minutes about the state of music in the world. He did reveal that his sons, Christi and Stani, who were then 9 and 10, loved to fish and were planning to go fishing that very morning with hotel manager Dick Lee on Lake Maitland. “I’m here for a week,” he told this reporter. “I’ve been here before and I hope to come again, it’s a beautiful place. I remembered how beautiful it was and decided to come back so the boys could get some fishing in the lakes.” He declined to say on what occasion he had been in Winter Park previously, although one Winter Park resident suggested he might have visited the retired Metropolitan Opera singer Louise Homer and her composer husband, Sidney, who were residents there in their final years. During that 1961 week in December, he attended a rehearsal of the Bach Festival Choir at the invitation of its then musical director, the lat Robert Hufstader, who was an old acquaintance. He also was a guest of the Robert Lamonts (now deceased) at their ranch home in Chuluota where he met among others Henry Mazer, then Florida Symphony Orchestra conductor. Lee, reached at Lee’s Inn in Highlands, N.C., which he runs in the summertime, remembered that Stokowski came back to the Alabama on at least two occasions later with the children. Lee also said that he personally brought the two boys to the Sentinel Star for a tour of the newspaper plant. Several years later this reporter attended a performance of Shostakovitch’s Fifth Symphony which Stokowski conducted at the Boaston Symphony’s summer home at Tablewood, Mass., but did not get a chance to speak to him. Sentinel Star veteran Sumner Rand was a member of the news staff covering the musical and theatrical beat when it was learned Stokowski was in Winter Park incognito. Sentinel Star, Thursday, September 15, 1977 Stokowski, area horticulturist developed special friendship By Sumner Rand, Sentinel Star Staff Mulford B. Foster, one of the area’s best known horticulturists and landscape architects, spent a summer in 1928 with Leopold Stokowski and his family in Switzerland. Foster, who had a nursery and the Latchstring Tea Room on Magnolia Avenue between Colonial Drive and Park Lake Avenue for many years before moving to his present estate at Clarcona, was intruduced to the famous conductor by a mutual friend from Clermont. Stokowski’s wife at the time had a home in Palm Beach and the conductor spent time in Florida frequently.) Stokowski who died Tuesday at age 95, was fascinated by Foster’s philosophy and insight into plant life, according to Mrs. Foster, and invited him to spend the summer at his chalet in the Haute-Savoie. They traveled about together in France and Switzerland, with Foster bringing back photographs of plants and flowers indigenous to the area. Stokowski knowing of Foster’s artistic ability, demanded to know “What’s wrong with your paint brush?,” so Mulford began daily paintings or sketches of the plant life for Stokowski. Foster, who was several years younger than Stokowski, later wrote a book about those paintings. It was never published, but he sent a copy to Stokowski. The conductor at the time was married to his second wife, Love Johnson, a member of the pharmaceutical family of Johnson & Johnson. Foster taught their children (including a daughter by Stokowski’s first wife, Olga Samaroff) to draw and play tennis. While with Stokowski, Foster met many leading musicians including the French composer Maurice Ravel. “There was an empathy between them,” says Mrs. Foster. “My husband was able to convey his belief that plant life is a spiritual as music or painting is to other people.” Stokowski and Foster continued to exchange letters over the years and in 1939 or 1940 they met again in Sao Paulo, Brazil quite by accident. Foster and his wife, Racine, were there to collect bromeliads (they amassed one of the largest collections in the world) and Stokowski came through on a concert tour with the youth orchestra he founded. The horticulturist-botanist didn’t think Stokowski would recognize him but as Foster and his wife entered the door of the hotel dining room, “Stokowski waved at us as if he’d seen him (Foster) only yesterday.” They had dinner together and Stokowski arranged tickets for a box at the Sao Paulo concert hall where he was conducting the concert. One one of the occasions when Stokowski was visiting at the Alabama Hotel in Winter Park in the early 1960s, the Fosters invited him out to see their gardens and collections of tropical plants at Bromel-La in Clarcona near Lockhart. They picked up Stokowski, who had his two young sons by Gloria Vanderbilt) with him at the hotel and took them on a tour of Bromel-La. A younger Stokowski visiting Winter Park The late Leopold Stokowski, world famous conductor who died Tuesday, is shown in a 1961 photo made during the first of three visits to Winter Park. Stokowski and his sons Stand and Chris, who in 1961 were ages 10 and 9, respectively, spent two-week holidays at the Alabama Hotel in the winters of 1961, ‘62, and ‘63. They are shown above with Dick Lee, manager of the hotel, and Edward Gurney, then mayor of Winter Park and later a U.S. congressman and senator, at the old Winter Park railroad station.

Text Any textual data included in the document Elegance of Time – Finger Bowls and Flowers 1977 by Nancy Long Graphic by Chip Weston Time is turned back to a period of graciousness and courtesy at the Alabama, where the breeze from Lake Maitland, not the air conditioning, billows the sheer curtains that hang beneath floral drapes. Tables in the dinning room always are formally set – finger bowls, bud vases with fresh flowers, service plates and the full place setting of silverware. In the evenings the lake breeze flickers the candlelight. Guests don’t eat, they dine at the Alabama. And it is the dinning room that tells the story of what the old hotel is all about. “Everyone is trying to get back to that vintage of elegance today.” said Darrell Micu, maitre d’ at the Alabama for seven seasons. “Even the younger people, they’re trying to go back. And it’s always been right here.” The “elegance” Micu refers to is not expensive accessories and décor. It is the elegance of time – time for courtesy, time for polite and proper service, time to prepare the food fresh and not frozen. Time to enjoy genteel sports and cultural events and social affairs where conversation is the most important ingredient. “In recent season our guests have enjoyed putting matches, shuffleboard, teas, Katherine and Alphonse Carlo’s music, Joy Postle’s drawings and slide lectures,” Micu explained as though he were talking about the cherished older members of his own family. The maitre d’ who had served in the same tradition of elegance for six years at the Seminole and before that for seven years at the Virginia Inn has one word for the new management takeover at the Alabama, “Great!” Robert Walmsley and John Spang have a reputation for restoration in Winter Park, a reputation for enhancing what used to be. Micu is not the only member of the staff who was relieved to learn that the new managers are going to carry on a tradition. James Lynch, general handyman for eight seasons and Alice David, who bakes all the fresh breads and pastries also were happy to return to their jobs knowing nothing will change. And as for Daren Micu, four years old, he was delighted to return to the fairy tale hotel inhabited by the special surrogate grandparent guests. There he has spent the first four winters of his life and he jabbers on with four-year-old precociousness about Mr. Chase (of Chase Manhattan), Mrs. Kirkpatrick “who turns her cane upside down and puts he ball with me” and the Goodspeeds who always bring candy. Daren has been like a mascot around the Alabama, says his father, but he explains that Daren spends most of his time at the yellow shingled staff cottage next door and isn’t allowed to interfere with the hotel guests’ routine. Like other staff members Micu shows a respect for the “guests,” their privacy, and their comfort, that borders on reverence. Such polite deference to tradition and friendly protocol seems to place hotel staff members in the niche of characters in Victorian novels. There’s the maitre d’ who’s served with loyalty all the old hotels “until they were torn down and I had to move on to another one.” And the staff manager, Steve Snyder. His college degree is in geronotology and he feels he’s found his calling at the Alabama where most guests are senior citizens and the “the place is just filled with history and integrity – the way it was built and” has been run. And the chef, an attractive young woman who received her bachelor’s degree in restaurant management and learned from her former professor at Florida International about the “exciting” reclamation project, the Alabama Hotel. Mary Tanke promises “homecooked meals, with three entrees, salad, a different homemade soup each day, fresh baked pastries and breads. Variety is the key word for everything served here, because the guests are here a long time and eat three meals a day here.” And, there are the managers, Robert Walmsley and John Spang, who are leasing the hotel from Alabama of Winter Park, Inc. They’ve already made their mark on Park Avenue – with the opening of a successful boutique for fine clothing, followed by the popular East India Ice Cream Company and then the Park Plaza Hotel, a period restoration that won them an honorable mention ribbon last year from the judges of the Sidewalk Art Festival. Soon to open is their next restaurant venture, The Palms, adjacent to the Park Plaza. Two months ago the two men who have a strong respect for preservation signed the least for the Alabama. Spang says he’s impressed with the efficiency of the layout of the old hotel. In the dining room, for instance, because of the layout of the serving stations, he says four “highly trained waiters who know things must be served a certain way” can handle a full dining room capacity. IN the future, Spang hopes to be able to grow the fresh vegetables served in the dining room right on the seven-acre hotel complex. He echos other staff members’ credo: nothing will be changed for the longtime guests of the Alabama. Even in the rooms were guests have requested special additions, built in dressing tables and china accessories, there will be NO changes. Activities for guests will be planned along the same lines as before. He mentioned a guest as his other hotel, the Park Plaza, as a possible addition to the musical program at the Alabama. She’s Dr. Marjorie Reeze Elliot of Oneida, N.Y. who is a composer-pianist. In the list of Alabama staff characters, there is also the modern-day narrator – she’s the public relations representative, Niki Bryan. The bubbly young socially prominent transplant (from Orlando) can’t say too much about what her clients are doing for the community. “I believe they really want to keep it the way it is. They’ll make a profit on the hotel – but not a quick profit. “We hope to add the homey touches for the guests, you know. Bring children in … a choir… these people don’t get to see children. It’s hard to be a p.r. person and not oversell. But you don’t have to sell what they’re doing here.” “This is why I moved to Winter Park – anybody can move to the Springs. And more and more young couples have begun to feel that way. Where else can you bring your children for a Sunday afternoon buffet that’s anything like the Alabama?” To round out the characters in the novel are another dozen staff members, some hired by the young gerontologist staff manager, through the Council on Aging. But the principal character is the grande dame herself, the 55-year-old Alabama. What stories she could tell – of the rich and the famous who have stayed in the 90 rooms of her poured concrete four-story structure were innovations of the time. The land on which it was built was sold in 1920 to Joe Kronenberger for $100,000. Going back a few years farther in the Winter Park Public Library’s records of the Alabama Estate, former home of Mr. and Mrs. W.C. Temple, was sold to Frank Shermann of Bar Harbor, Maine, in 1917. After Mr. Kronenberger, who was from Cleveland, Ohio bought the estate in 1920, the Alabama Hotel and Raymona Apartment House were built in 1921 by the Alabama Hotel Company. Officers were Ed F. Keezel, L. Newell, Anna Kronenberger and Joe Kronenberger. In January, 1922, the hotel was opened, Library records show that in 1923 the hotel was leased to D.L. Rice of Washington, D.C. and F.B. Lynch of New Your and was later sold to Fred and Clifford Folger of Nantucket, former managers, for $100,900. Depression times leave a sparse report on business at the Alabama, but in 1932 E.J. LaChange and Henry Schenck leased the Alabama Hotel from the Alabama Hotel Inc. of which R.C. Osborne was then president and Hope Strong was secretary. Four years later, in 1936, E.J. LaChance and Henry Schenck bought the hotel. Then in 1959 came a report that Henry Schenck planned to turn the 80-room hostelry over to its new owners, Mayell Enterprises, who planned to turn it into a retirement hotel and co-operative aparement cetner. Schenck did sell the hotel to Mayell-Alabama of Winter Park, Inc. in 1960, when management was taken over by Dick Lee, former manager of the Wyoming Hotel of Orlando and operator of Lee’s Inn in Highlands, N.C. The well-known resort hotel manager continued operation of the Alabama until the recent management takeover. Over the years the names that have been signed on the guest registry included a commander in chief of the U.S. Fleet, ambassadors to Turkey, China, and Germany, Baron Paul d’Estournelles de Constant, Sinclair Lewis, Dorothy Thompson, Margaret Mitchell and Thornton Wilder. Today, the new management hopes to attract the community again for luncheon and dinner in the spacious dining room as was once a Winter Park tradition. Also, the Alabama will again offer facilities and catering for private parties and a Sunday buffet for the public. Private parties will be catered in the original W.C. Temple home that always has stood as part of the hotel complex and has housed the large kitchen. The house, with enclosed front porch, has been repainted to show off the fine etched glass front door and columned porch. Earlier reports were that it would be a pub, but the managers now say it will be used only for private parties. Spang said 85 per cent of the hotel’s guests are expected to return this year and that rates have gone up “only several dollars.” Rates never have been and still aren’t in the motel chain range. They’re $50 a day including three meals, with rates decreasing on a scale to $45 a day for 10 weeks and $35 a day for 14 weeks. Single rooms and suites are available. In recent decades, rumors have visited the gracious seven-acre hotel complex on more than one occasion – rumors of subdivisions and condominiums. It seemed inevitable that the grand old hotel would have to go. And neighbors have grown more and more uneasy with each new development rumor. If the Alabama can be saved from the fate of her Winter Park grand hotel sisters, the Seminole and Virginia, the new managers will indeed have made it possible for the city to hold on to an important link in its history.

Text Any textual data included in the document Winter Park Outlook 9/15/1988 – September 15, 1988 PESO to auction off piece of Alabama Hotel An antique breakfront from the original Alabama Hotel sits in a room cluttered with pieces of old and broken furniture at Rad’s Refinishing Shop in Maitland. PESO hopes to tsell the breakfront and donate the proceeds to local arts’ organizations (Missy Clark photo) Winter Park – For several months, a piece of Winter Park’s early history has been gathering dust at a local antique and refinishing shop. The large breakfront, or sideboard, believed to be more than 100 years old, was once part of the elegant Alabama Hotel. It’s last owners, Mr. and Mrs. Charles M. Booth, donated the unique – and very valuable – piece to PESO to be auctioned off at one of the organization’s annual fund-raising auctions for the arts. But since PESO has, for the most part, discontinued its auction, the breakfront has sat idle and virtually unnoticed at Rad’s Refinishing Shop in Maitland. Ernest Caldwell, associate director of PESO, is working to generate interest in the piece and hopes to sell it through a written bidding process. All proceeds would go toward PESO’s ongoing support of local arts organizations. PESO, a division of Arts Inc., is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing financial support for 12 major cultural groups throughout Central Florida. Since its inception in 1968, it has distributed over $1,800,000. Its beneficiaries include the Bach Festival Society, Crealde Arts Inc., Florida Symphony Orchestra, Maitland Art Association and the Morse Museum of Art, just to name a few. The breakfront, circa 1870 – 1890, is made of pine and burl pine with leaded glass cabinet doors. It is 8 feet long, 67 inches high and 27 inches deep. Although Caldweel did not wish to reveal its total appraisal value, he said the piece is worth “several thousand dollars.” “This would make a very beautiful addition to an antique collector’s home or could be used as a wonderful display piece in a store,” said Caldwell. The breakfront can be seen at Rad’s Refinishing, 2310 N. Park Ave, Maitland, just below the intersection of Park and Orlando avenues. Bid forms are available at Rad’s and should be returned to the PESO office by Sept. 30.

Text Any textual data included in the document Orlando Evening Star Tuesday December 15, 1959 Board Awaits Views on Hotel Argument Major Policy Issue Faces Zoning Chiefs by Leigh Richmond – Staff Writer “Burden of proof” letters on the $4 to $5 million retirement hotel project proposed for the Alabama Hotel have begun coming in, but the majority are not expected until today, according to the city building officials office. Winter Park Planning and Zoning Board has asked near by residents to re-state their opposition or position in favor of the project, giving the reasons, by today. The board will meet in the near future, at which time every letter received will be considered, and the decision be made, chairman James Banks has said. In two major hearings on the project, it has been emphasized that the “burden of proof” in the decision lies on those who would restrain a man in the use of his property. The question before the planning and zoning board in deciding whether to grant permission for the project in an area zoned residential has been “whether the enlargement will have an adverse effect sufficient to justify a refusal,” Chairman James Banks has stated in various different ways during the hearings. The second question which must be answered by the board in its decision is that of the existence of a need for the project, but opponents of the project have not contested proofs offered by the proponents that the need exits. Major considerations entering the decision as they affect nearby property owners have been: Traffic: The question here is both traffic by the apartment owners themselves and by service trucks and personnel. On servicing the apartments, opponents claim the truck traffic will increase drastically. Those favoring the project declare that it will increase very little since for instance, a bread truck can deliver one or a hundred loaves of bread in the same stop. On traffic caused by the cars of apartment residents, opponents claim that the increase will be major, while proponents claim that the type of person who will be attracted to the retirement project will have a low percentage of car ownership and do little driving. Kitchens and cooking: The project is planned with a dining room with a seating capacity for 300, on a wing of the building next to the present Alabama structure facing the lake. Kitchens as such will not be built into the apartments; however, kitchen units will be permitted where desired, similar to kitchen units now in use in the Langford and other hotels. Proponents say these units will be used merely for coffee, light breakfasts, or evening ice cubes, and will be in demand over only a small percentage of the apartments. Estimates were 12 pct. Opponents asked “when is a kitchen not a kitchen” and insisted that there use for three meals a day was probably, entailing kitchen exhausts, food deliveries, and the like. Garbage and trash removal: Proponents showed plans for walled-in trash and garbage areas behind each building, with receptacles buried. Opponents declared the trash and garbage from such a project would create a problem. Number of persons involved: The project is designed to contain 311 rooms, including 66 in the present Alabama Hotel. Estimates by the proponents were that a were that a total of around 245 persons would own units since a number of people would take two-single-room unites and convert them into one. Opponents feel that the percentage might be higher, that two people might occupy one single room apartment in many instances: and that the staff of the building would increase the number to tremendous proportions. Other uses to which the property could be put: Winter Park’s building office was asked to estimate the number of residences that could be placed with no question on the property, and offered the figure of 45. Ed Gurney, attorney for and investor in the project, declared that the hotel itself could be allowed to remain, and 32 duplex cottages built around it, on a plan whereby the residents of the cottages at the Alabama would not require permission from anybody. Either usage, it was pointed out by proponents, would entail heavier traffic flows, more ground covered by buildings and a less desirable usage from the point of view of neighbors. Opponents did not state whether the suggested usages were more or less desirable from their points of view.

Text Any textual data included in the document Orlando Sentinel January 21, 1960 Commissioners Get Hotel Issue Again Winter Park’s Alabama Hotel squabble popped back into public focus yesterday when city commission received a petition asking for a public hearing. Some 40 persons interested in blocking construction of the $4 million cooperative hotel were represented at the meeting by Atty J.B. Rodgers Jr. The Orlando attorney asked commissioners to hold up issuance of a building permit pending further action by opponents of the project which is planned by developer Lionel V. Mayeel, of Mayell Enterprises, Inc. The board decided to receive the petition, signed by about 45 persons living within 500 feet of the Alabama property, and take the matter under advisement. Mayor-Commr. Lynn Pflug did not attend the meeting; Commr. John Mann presided. A recent planning and zoning board decision ruled in favor of the proposed hotel. Rodgers said he questioned the legality of the board’s power in making the decision without provision for commission review. He said the only power of the planners is to recommend decisions to the commissioners, who have the final prerogative. City Atty. Webber Haines, however, has stated the only recourse from a P&C decision is the courts. The project is designed to include four units with a total of 311 rooms, including the present Alabama Hotel. The three new structures would form a semi-circle, each three stories high. In other business, the board approved plans for the Lakemont Park recreation area in northeast Winter Park. Development of the area is a joint project of the recreation and park boards. Present work will be mainly landscaping and beautification, with eventual plans calling for swings and other playground equipment.

Text Any textual data included in the document December 17, 1961 The Alabama Hotel overlooking Lake Maitland Life begins at 50 for a Grand Old Gal By John Oliver The Alabama Hotel is pretty close to its 51st birthday, but the grand old gal of Winter Park has a new lease on life. Many new leases, in fact. The leases are those which are gradually transforming the giant on the shores of Lake Maitland into a co-operative hotel under the direction of Dick Lee and associates. Constructed in 1910, with an innovation of the day in massive poured concrete columns, the Alabama is a winter resort hotel with a proud history, it’s registry packed with the names of the great and near great. Now, although the American Plan hotel facilities are still available, the Alabama is following the modern trend of the co-op. Lee, whose tenure in this area’s hotel business goes back to the now razed Wyoming, has something new in co-ops, however. While owners may purchase their own apartments, Lee and his staff will supply not only the maintenance but the hotel’s unparalleled cuisine for the select few who are invited to make the Alabama their home. Located just off busy Palmer Ave. within walking distance of the Winter Park Golf Course and the quaint down-town area, the Alabama is nevertheless shut off from everyday care by its spacious gardens. Years of planning and care have created the splendor of broad sweeps of lawn sloping to the lake, giant oaks, feathery palms and colorful flower and plant displays. An intimate garden and vine-covered walls say “Welcome home.” Lee, whose enthusiasm and drive led to the establishment of the mecca of many Central Florida summer vacation summers, Lee’s Inn, Highland, N.C., is “high” on his latest project. “You’ll be at home at the Alabama,” he says. And one of the reasons why is because of the unique system under which proffessional management is supplied but under which the owner-residents will have a voice in the direction through the control of a board of governors elected from among owner-residents. “After the initial purchase, with full title and title insurance, the owners may decorate and furnish their suites according to their personal taste,” Lee points out. The maintenance will be handled through a monthly fee of $106, which includes real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance costs. The fee is based on a definite percentage of the owner’s investment. Meals on the American plan will be furnished at a flat fee of $5 per day per person while in residence with a lesser charge when the owner is not in residence. So after many years the Alabama changes its method of operation. But, Lee says, there’s plenty of life in the old girl yet. “And in her case, Life Begins at 50,” Lee Says.

Housekeeping – good; small amount of trash under floor of kitchen section and outside north wall but immediate correction promised and expected. Some grease accumulates on wall near exhaust fan in kitchen. Building maintenance – good; except fair for kitchen section. Sprinkler maintenance record – good, however electric manually controlled, 500 gpm booster pump on sprinkler system in basement is not maintained; city water supply has improved since pump was installed Recommendations have received prompt attention, except for the two that remain. Loss Record: Clear. Sprinkler Leakage: System has electric booster pump but pump is kept shut off and not maintained. Extended coverage: Windstorm – Porches adjoin on all except north side. Buidling masonry joist except east wall and part of west wall, frame, stucco on metal lath, and the kitchen section is frome joisted. Main roof is flat and slightly gabled in part, sloping to exterior walls, where roof timbers rest on and extend beyond these walls, forming un-boxed cornice with about a one-foot overhang; roof covered with asbestos shingles or composition on wood decking. Due to the two five story tower sections between east and west wings and central section, roof is not at same elevation over building, but forms five separate blind attics which are not connected. Kitchen wing and detached buildings are of frame, ordinary joisted construction and have gable roofs covered with composition. Recommendations 1. (1968) It would be desirable if the electric booster pump for the sprinkler system and the pump shaft, and control valves incident to the pump were placed in proper condition. 2. (1968) The hood and vent system for the main cooking equipment in the kitchen should be revised so that hood and a duct (properly extended to the exterior) will both have at least 18 inches clearance from combustible materials (which clearance can be reduced by proper insulation). Sprinkler system should be properly extended to protect hood and duct with standard sub-control valve and heads of the “high” temperature ratings employed.

Statement of Significance - Alabama Hotel: The Alabama Hotel began construction under the Alabama Hotel Company, Incorporated in 1921 and was completed in 1924 by Clifford Folger and Fred Folger of Nantucket, Massachusetts. In 1932, the Hotel was sold to a group of investors of the Alabama Hotel, Inc. and subsequently sold to E.J. LaChance and Henry Schenck in 1941. In 1960 shortly after the purchase of the Hotel by Mayll-Alabama of Winter Park, Inc., the first threat of major land development to the Alabama property occurred. However, due to the inability of to capture proper financing, the development never came to be and continued its operation as a seasonal hotel as it had in the previous 40 years. The land on which the Alabama Hotel was built was formerly part of the estate of W.C. Temple and where the house originally stood. IN the early 1900’s many wealthy, cultivated people from the North stayed in hotels such as the Alabama. Among the prominent people who enjoyed the leisure life style of the Alabama were ambassadors, politicians, and generals. Sinclair Lewis, Margaret Mitchell and Thornton Wilder were guests at one time. More recently, in 1961, Leopold Stokowski, the famous conductor, spent a week at the Alabama Hotel. The Alabama Hotel is the only seasonal hotel that remains in Winter Park from the golden area of the Florida Boom Hotels and has remained relatively unchanged in its architectural detail. The Hotel is presently leased by the East India Trading Company, Inc. who is in process of performing its potion to purchase and renovate the structure. Present & Original Physical Appearance In 1904, the Temple House existed on the Alabama estate along with the adjoining refectory and various bungalows. In order for the hotel to be constructed the Temple house was moved to the left and the refectory, having a basement, remained in place. From the lake presently, one sees the hotel with the yellow-shingled Temple house on the left and the refectory on the right. Alabama Hotel Basic Appearance…. The five story structure is enveloped by a climbing fig growth lending it a harmonious relationship with the spacious grounds. A veranda opens from the front with a sidewalk sweeping down the grounds to Palmer and Lake Maitland. The vehicle approach is through a tree lined lane ending in a circular drive with a portico entry into the lobby. The “Living Room” lobby is rectangular with green marble fireplaces at either end. There is central air in the lobby only, the original single-hung windows, and the ceiling is vaulted. The opening from the east side and a card room opening from the west side. As one passes the main desk, to the housing quarters on the west end there is a “clanking” elevator, reportedly the oldest in Winter Park. There are 68 rooms in total, six on the ground floor, 20 on the next three floors and two penthouse units. The rooms are buff colored, with an assortment of furnishings, a few of which were constructed on the premises. The dining room wing opening from the east side of the lobby flows directly into the adjacent refectory. Alterations…. In 1946, to meet the existing codes, major alterations were made. The concrete stairway was added and a sprinkler system was integrated into the entire structure, thus all ceilings were re-plastered. Originally the fireplaces were red brick, there were chandeliers with white candles in the lobby and wicker furniture. The rug was a Chinese Blue with black oriental figures, the sign of longetivity. Comments: The original plan outlined an Italian promenade on the roof facing the lake. The Meditation Garden near the rear entrance was designed by an assistant to Andre Smith, developer of the Maitland Art Center in 1941.

Text Any textual data included in the document New Life for Old Landmark Olrando Land September 1980 By John P. O’Meara Construction of the Alabama Hotel (below) began in 1921, shortly after Joseph Kronenberger bought the property from orange grower William Chase Temple and subdivided it into lots. The choicest parcel was reserved for the hotel and grounds, and many regular guests eventually bought homes in the fashionable subdivision. Life on the Temple estate was leisurely and gracious. Pre-Prohibition guests below offer a toast to a halcyon era. Elegant shops and chic restaurants along Winter Park’s Park Avenue have replaced the bustling downtown business district of the 1920s, which looked like this when the Alabama was built. The building in the center has been replaced by the Barnett Bank at the intersection of New England Avenue. William and Carrie Temple bough the lakeside estate in 1898. Sixteen years later, Mr. Temple promoted Louis Hakes’ orange-tangerine hybrid that became famous as the Temple orange. Restoration of the Alabama Hotel and conversion to condominiums is scheduled for completion by April. Stately exterior will remain virtually as it appeared when hotel was constructed. Renovated refectory at right will serve as clubhouse and restaurant. The Temple House (left) was moved to its present location in 1921 after Joseph Kronenburger purchased the estate for $100,000 to build his hotel. The summer house at the right of the picture was moved at the same time. In the early 1900s, Mr. Temple added rooms to the main house, center below, and built the summer house, right. The refectory at left was built for cooking and dining and houses a wine cellar. It’s becoming an area tradition to tear down the old to make way for the new. But least one Winter Park landmark, the tradition doesn’t apply. Developers Charles Booth and Charles Simmerson picked up the 59-year-old Alabama Hotel around the first of the year, with plans to convert the 66-room Lake Maitland landmark to a 25-unit condominium community. “We are about 40 per cent completed right now,” says Charles Booth. “We’ll be moving people in sometime in October, and we ought to be finished by April.” The 3 ½-acre Alabama complex includes the four-story hotel and three older buildings once occupied by the William Chase Temple, Winter Park civic leader and promoter of the famous Temple orange hybrid. When the hotel was built in 1921, the Temple House and summer house were moved a short distance away, and became staff quarters and home for the boiler heating the hotel. The wine-cellared refectory, once used as kitchen and dining area for the Temple estate, remains at its original location at the hotel’s west side. According to Mr. Booth, the restored Temple House and summer house will contain a total of three condominiums. The remaining 22, including two penthouses, are being readied in the hotel. The interior of the refectory is being converted to a restaurant-lounge that will be open to the public. New construction at the site includes includes covered parking abutting the main entryway and a swimming pool just beyond the refectory/ clubhouse. Even the old building, if it can still be called that, is being completely restored. “The city wanted to preserve the exterior,” said Mr. Booth. “What we did was to remove the interior Walls and create a brand-new building.” By the time demolition crews had finished, all that remained of the Alabama Hotel were the 20-inch exterior and load-bearing walls. New plumbing, electricity and even a new roof were installed as interior walls went in to create the new floorplans. Condominiums in one- two- and three-bedroom suites of 1,400 – 2,500 sq. ft. range from $140,000 to $225,000 with financing available. The 3.9 acre Alabama Condominium Community has 190 feet fronting Lake Maitland, where a boat dock affords access to the water.
