The Lake Worth Herald on the news about the Gulfstream Hotel

There was a respectful gathering at the Gulfstream last Monday to celebrate the good news and to honor an old friend who worked so hard to save the hotel, Loretta Sharpe.

     "A three-judge Appellate Panel of the Circuit Court unanimously issued a ruling that states: 'The Petition for Writ of Certiorari is DENIED.'
     The decision is the Court’s rejection of an effort that would have resulted in thwarting the revitalization of the Gulfstream Hotel and the 12-block surrounding area known as Lake Worth’s Hotel District. 
     In February, the City was challenged by three citizens, Linda Mahoney, Roseanne Malakates and former City Commissioner JoAnn Golden about whether construction of a 65-ft new building expansion of the Gulfstream Hotel was in compliance with downtown height limits."

     "Asked what their plans were now, Steven Michael of Hudson Holdings said, they plan on moving forward and said there were never any other plans. Hudson Holdings was unable to move forward until the lawsuit was over. City of Lake Worth Mayor Pam Triolo said she is thankful for Judges’ decision. 
     'This community has longed for the reopening of our beautiful, historic hotel and this decision now clears the way,' said Mayor Triolo. 'The Gulfstream Hotel will revitalize the community and serve as a catalyst in our Downtown, to bring in much-needed tourism for our businesses and great lodging for the friends and relatives of our residents.'
