TO REMODEL HOTEL SOON.
Architects In Town Monday To Look
Over King Hotel Property.

Messrs. Stilwell and Myer, archi-
tects OF Hendersonville, were in the
city Monday comforting Ryith DR.. II.
X. Aiken and Mr.. j. d. Watts prepare
tory to drawing plans for the remodel
ing of the King Hotel property. They
left the same evening to begin work
on the plans which will require sew
eral weeks and Immediately, said DR..
Aiken Monday, the contract would be
let for the construction.
Though no final decision has as yet
been made as to the plans, DR.. Aiken
was able to give a general idea as to
the work which will be done on the
building. The metallic exterior on
the front Of the building will be y
moved and decorative pressed brick
front will be put in, both on the hotel
property and the two store rooms. The
gabled roof will be removed so as to
allow for straight skyline, this line
to be slightly higher than the build
ing occupied by II. Terry next door.
The present lobby will be re-arrang-
ed in several particulars, tiled floor
being among the improvements. The
two store rooms will also be lowered
and improved.
Instead Of adding other stories to
the building, an addition will be made
in the rear. In this will be six spa
cious sample rooms and sixteen bed
rooms. The extension will be about
76 feet long. The rooms In the pres
ent building will be overhauled and
changed around considerably, so as to
allow for additional bath rooms. When
the building Is completed, about one
half Of the rooms will be provided
with private baths. Though no deci-
sion has yet been made as to steam
heat, It Is thought that a complete
heating plant will be installed. The
owners expect to make the building
comfortable, convenient and modern.
