WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — A historic hotel and boarding house had to be parked overnight on a South Florida street during a move because of delays with its relocation.
Traffic had to be blocked off overnight Sunday on a street in West Palm Beach, and some light posts were temporarily removed to accommodate the relocation of the almost-century-old The Edgewater.
The 4,900-square-foot hotel was moved about 1.5 miles to a historic district of West Palm Beach after a new owner of the property decided its former location would be the site of a new parking.
The Edgewater will be used as a bed-and-breakfast inn in its new location.
