There’s a simple solution to this contentious dispute.
The potentates of Belleair should simply throw open the gates and allow any resident to go on a guided tour of the bedraggled and dilapidated and crumbling former queen of the Gulf of Mexico, the now forlorn Belleview Biltmore Hotel.
They will be able to luxuriate in the growing mold. They will be able to go on a thrill ride navigating the warped and buckling floors. They will be introduced to exposed wiring. They will be amazed by the incredibly disappearing roof. And yes, they will be saddened by how such an elegant masterpiece of architecture could be allowed to descend into an ancient ruin.
If the Belleview Biltmore were human, it would be dead.
