Joe Lehman - Grossinger's 1986
Grossingers might have closed in 1986 but that’s not where Joe Lehman's story ended.
In 1986, Joe and his family moved from West Palm Beach Florida to live at Grossinger’s after it closed. His father was Robert Lehman, the Vice President of Servico, a company that attempted to reopen the hotel.
Today you will hear about Grossinger’s from a very new perspective. Joe chats about what is was like to live at this legendary hotel at during the often talked about "decline", we chat about the reasons for the decline, and the impact these hotels had on millions of people.
Check out Joe's photography HERE.
