Winter Projects
An ambitious schedule of winter improvement projects is underway with changes planned for every floor of The Inn. The major first floor change is the conversion of the Baitler Board Room to a smaller but dramatically renovated space that will function both as an integral part of Academe (expanding our daily seating capacity by 20) and as a special events room. Changes to the Board Room include: multi-light exterior doors and sidelights overlooking the patio; interior, multi-light French doors opening into the bar area; a large, flat screen TV – just in time for baseball season; a new wood floor and painting of the walls to match Academe’s décor. The spring Quarterly will describe changes now in process in rooms and suites.
