  • The Dixie Walesbilt Hotel (also known as the Hotel Walesbilt) is a historic hotel in Lake Wales, Florida, United States located at 5 Park Avenue West and/or 115 North 1st Street. The Walesbilt Hotel was renamed the Hotel Grand by the New York owner Victor Khubani during the 1980s. The structure was built in 1926 after a stock-sale campaign in the local business community. It opened on January 14, 1927, two years before Edward Bok's famous Bok Tower was completed nearby. Original owners included then Governor Martin of Florida and silent screen star Thomas Meighan along with a consortium of other actors/actresses including Mary Pickford, Gloria Swanson and Clara Bow as well as famous Hollywood attorney Nathan Burkan and Hollywood Producer Victor Heerman. The interior of the building was even more ornate than the exterior. It featured shopping arcades, Italian-made ceilings and column capitals, a drinking fountain by Ernest A. Batchelder, Georgia Pink and Vermont Verde antique marble floors by Georgia Marble Company, a wrought iron balustrade, and a central mezzanine. Construction is of steel-reinforced poured concrete in post-and-beam method, without bearing walls. The building suffered only superficial damage during the hurricanes of 2004. On August 31, 1990, the hotel was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. In 1995 it was sold at auction and closed. The interior was partially dismantled for reconstruction, which was never completed. In February 2010, a redevelopment agreement was proposed between the City of Lake Wales and a private sector developer led by Ray Brown to return the hotel to its original finishes and repurpose the building as 19,500 square foot Boutique Hotel with commercial space.

Dibawah kontrak, hotel ini dijual bulan Juni 2006 tetapi negosiasi sedang berjalan untuk subsidi pemerintah untuk menyediakan pelataran parkir atau bantuan yang akan menyelesaikan proyek itu. Munculnya real estat di wilayah itu membantu tetapi biaya pembangunan yang meningkat mengganggu proyek. Bagian dalam bangunan lebih antik daripada bagian luar, memiliki pusat perbelanjaan, loteng buatan Italia, marmer dan besi, atrium tengah, dan lainnya. Pembangunan dengan penuangan beton dalam metode post-and-beam, tanpa melewati dinding. Hotel ini mengalami kerusakan parah selama badai tahun 2004. Tanggal 31 Agustus 1990, hotel ini dimasukkan dalam AS dengan nomor referensi 90001273. (in)
