- ... that the Waikiki Biltmore, opened in February 1955, was the first high-rise hotel built on Waikiki?[1]
ALT1:... that Waikiki's first high-rise hotel, the Waikiki Biltmore, only operated for 19 years before being imploded? The hotel was imploded at 8 a.m. on May 28, 1974.[2]
- Comment: I've already DYK'd another demolished resort (Safari Hotel) yesterday, so if they are both accepted, if you can queue this for a different day that would be great!
