Downtown Bar hopping with some friends on Saturday (and as a local born and raised the idea of "bar hopping" downtown still seems strange) anyway allt he signs of "coming soon" for the Hilton are done in a very 1930's Art Deco style.

I really hope that hints to an awesome art deco aesthetic for the hotel, the style in general has made big comebacks over the last 5-10 years so Im hoping they take advantage of this original hotel and go all the way with the theme
