The "grand expansion" at the Hotel Hershey is proceeding at a good clip.
Cottages have taken shape behind the Circular Dining Room and the valet parking area is being completely transformed. The approach to the hotel will soon be via a less circuitous and more "grand" route — the improved entry drive is taking shape. Mature trees have been taken down (many of them are being relocated to the cottage area) and the front of the Hotel looks more open as the entry drive is formed.
There's a good view of the construction from the upper parking lot at the Hershey Gardens (and that's one more great place in Hershey to take your construction-loving preschooler to watch some earth moving — more free entertainment!)
My mother, sister & sister-in-law stopped for drinks last month late afternoon. Thinking the sunset might be nice.
Man, the jackhammering was intense and kind of spoiled the whole thing. I'll be happy when they're done.
