This is really nice. It has an attractive colour scheme and a certain
‘elegance’ to it.

That color scheme, which I agree is nice, also apparently means “firehouse”
to the mundanes. At every show it’s been to, I hear someone in the crowd say
something about the “firestation”. Despite the lack of bay doors, and the
shops on the first floor, etc. Has anyone else had this problem? What can I
do to clue people in to a building’s purpose? Maybe a sign with the hotel’s
name on it?
“elegance” - Thanks! I don’t think I’ve had one of my creations called that
before.

It is this type of MOC that make me think I’ll have to build town one day.

Glad to hear it. I look forward to seeing what you build, if that day comes
around.

Very nice! Good sources of inspiration :) A sign with the hotel’s name
couldn’t hurt. I built a sign into a side wall of my Hotel Columbia that seems
to get the point across (althought that one isn’t red). A large rooftop sign
would be neato, the Statler originally had one. Also a marquee over the
entrances could possibly help.
Again, nice work!
