So much for Eloise

And Skipperdee. What will poor Skipperdee do?

The Plaza Hotel, where the fictional character Eloise romped through the corridors inside and the fiction writer F. Scott Fitzgerald romped in the fountain outside, (made) official the timetable for the hotel's closing. No one will romp at the Plaza after April 30.

The real estate company that owns the Plaza says it will become...condominiums and stores with a far smaller hotel on the 58th Street side.

I have fond memories of the Plaza. So it goes.
