Looking Back: Palm Hotel undergoes complete reconstruction
2 days ago
A look back at past Pilot articles by Julie Engler 50 Years Ago Nov. 11, 1976 A complete reconstruction is underway in the Palm Hotel on Central Avenue. Virtually an empty shell downstairs at the moment, owner Fraiser Baalim has some definite changes planned. The floor plan on the main floor will house a card room, casino, discotheque, bar, game room with electronic games and hotel lounge. The dancing floor of the discotheque will be most unusual for Whitefish. Made of plexiglass Baalim will be installing various colored lights under the floor which will pulsate with the beat from the electronic music. The seating around the dance floor will be of different levels and will be accented by two fireplaces. Decorating will be done primarily with stained glass plants old brick and antiques from the days when the Palm Hotel used to be the Hori Hotel and Cafe. 40 Years Ago Nov. 12, 1986 Winter blasted its way into the North Valley with sub-zero temperatures and near record snowfall. Record cold temperatures throughout the state preceded over nine inches of snow in the Whitefish area earlier this week. Roads remained open early Tuesday afternoon but forecast calling for strong winds
