1631-24 Air Conditioning Page l of 1 Subj: Miami Beach and a/c Date: 4/14/2004 6:00:16 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: HKMiami To: RSL(cD_hillyork.com Hello, this is Howard Kleinberg. I'm writing another book, this one specifically on the history of Miami Beach hotels. When I was doing my general Miami Beach history book, you sent me a copy of a page which I believe was from Arva Moore Parks' book about Hill York installing the first complete hotel air-conditioning in Miami Beach in 1946. For this new book, I'm looking for something more specific. Do the Hill York files show what hotel that was and how many (and quickly) others followed suit? Did either Everett Carroll or Ren Nitzsche ever do a memoir of sorts?Are there any survivors who were around in 1946 when that first a/c was put in? I'm asking a lot I'm sure, but detail on Miami Beach hotel a/c is vital to what I'm writing. Best regards Howard Kleinberg Wednesday, April 14, 2004 America Online: HKMiami
