reports:

Plans call for deconstructing the [Fairmont] tower and replacing its rooms with as many as 160 condos [...] The plan does not include retaining the Tonga Room. Please join me in emailing the planning department (instructions below) TODAY expressing how you feel the Tonga Room is a historic site that is worth saving.
