It was always breathtaking to drive by it, especially when it was all lit up at night time. But the owners immediately planted so many trees in front to block the view. After a few years, you couldn’t even see it anymore. I don’t think they updated that place since they bought it. I always thought it was tax laundering going on.
Remember The Shangri-La?

Had a "bad" reputation, operated for years and of course burned down.
