That's what they did in those days. The shorter building is the Hampshire and when they needed more room they built the Savoy but with an entrance from the Hampshire so all were dry in the rain.

This either Room 703 or 721. This was actually in the newest wing built in the late 80's (I think). The Savoy.

Was that Room 443 in the Hampshire. For internal calls we had to dial 1 then the room number.

This seems to be the "cheap" rooms of the main building. Each of the buildings rooms were designated with different numeric prefixes (the Main was 0 or 1).... 2 and 3's the outer buildings, Hampshire (401.. etc), Essex (501.. etc.), Regency (601... etc.), and Savoy (701.. etc). Also the Savoy had two suites, one was 721, with a heart shaped tub.

This appears to me to be the staircase that connected the Lower Lobby (winter coffee shop/summer gift shop on the right) with the upper South Lobby. Directly behind the lens were pay phone booths.

Played poker there as an adult the whole summer. The bigger stakes games were on the left and right far ends (on nice days outdoors on the card patio). Mornings 9:30 - 12:45, Afternoons 2-6, Evenings 8:15 - 12;30 or 1 AM. In between we ate in the dining room.

This seems to be a pic taken from the "Reservations Desk"... to the right is the Service Desk for bellhop and carhop service and straight ahead on the left short wall (not seen) was the elevator to the Essex and Hampshire wings and the elevator door only opened on this side in the lower lobby; on other floors a second door opened on the right.

That was the 2nd floor lobby with the bar to the right next to the main dining room. Spent every summer there from 1974 through 1998...
