Yes, and the Palomar in DC was a renovation of the old Radisson Barcelo Hotel. All the DC hotels are renovations of older buildings, including the George, Helix, Madera, Rouge, Topaz, and Monaco. In fact, I thought most of the Kimpton Hotels (not just the Monaco hotels) were renovations of older buildings. How many are brand new buildings?
