ROYAL JAMES DEAL.
...—......
Much intercst locally is centered
on the reported deal of the sale of
Royal James inn to a. group of
-~«£vt.amtord men.
'73 'The Royal James. a spacious col.
:f'oninl structure, built during the
:41“! period. has been rrgurded us in
the nature of a. “white elephant" to
its Norwalk stock and bond holders.
\ For reasons that have been a
mystery to some and very lucid to
othore. the hotel has never been
made to pay its own way.
LL“; With all the physical equipment
necessary and adiulrmle eun‘oundv
Silage, the Royal James has not been
able to attract and hold a suitlcient-
ly largo clicnh-lo. it is said ‘the
giroperty has been on the market
..101- two years.
There are lair indications that the
present. deal will go through. If so.
. ‘it is amid a new business block will
appear on \Vest avenue directly in
. front of the bowl. Entrance to the
latter would be through an arcade.
A. possible obstacle may crop up
it the second fond holders refuse
to sign the said: agreement. Local
real estate men. however. are sun.
guine that the transfer will to cf-
"a! bum: t it i ill 3: ‘

'ihis progpcclim dl-ul seems to
spike a. fflVOl‘illJiO theme of our
f-itamforri friends that all the growth
and activity in this end of thc state
are centered in that city. If Stem.
ford business mm sock on invest-
ment in Norwalk it would appear
they are "sold" on our future.
It is true that Stamford has en-l
joyed unusual progress during the]
past ten year. much greater progress
than Norwulk.
,
, It is our conviction that Nor-
:rwalk‘s period of rapid develop-
; ment has arrived and that what-
' ever state of comparative stagna-
tion which may have been suffered
here is ancient history.
Should the Royal James deal be
completed. Norwnlk will have a
new business block in a most ex-
cellent location. lt will attract new
stores: new trade and be of general
benefit to the appearance and bust-
nose tone of the city.
