Odd Question: Empty Hotel Building Near JFK - Info?
Hi Esteemed FT'ers...
I am crew for BA, and do quite a lot of JFK flights (which I love...), however, over the past couple of days, I noticed something for the first time...
On the way to JFK from the city... As you are nearing JFK, on the right hand side, as you start to come to a lot of the car rental places, there is quite a reasonable size hotel looking building that is empty. Looks a sizeable property, maybe 200-300 rooms or so... A little bit of red awning above some of the entrances or windows etc...
I was just wondering, as a point of interest, if anyone knows what this building was?
Sorry for the randomness of this question, but I have seen a it the last 3 times I have been to JFK in the last 2 weeks, and it has me curious now...
Thanks,
BBB

Darn it... Sorry, I just noticed the separate NYC sub-forum... Mods, feel free to move if you wish. Sorry about that.
