  1. I think the entertainment at the Hotel is a great idea. We have no entertainment in the immediate area of the No. End/Waterfront.
    The great thing about this is the entertainment does not conflict with any of their Neighbors. The closest entertainment is
    down the Seaport area & most people don’t want to walk down to that location.

    1. There is actually a huge residential building next door at Lincoln Wharf plus hundreds of people living at Burroughs and Battery Wharf. This is inside the hotel so it’s fine, but how insulting are you to not consider anyone other than yourself.
