Arlington Hotel, 18-20 W. 25th St. (2005)

In 2004 the canopy over the front entrance looked like this. The Chinese seems to say Ya Ning Dun Jiu Dian (Pinyin): Elegant Peaceful Pause Hotel, or the first three characters could be Ya Ning Tun (Wade-Giles) - i.e., Ar-Ling-Ton in transliteration. In 2007 the Hotel sign had been removed, the Arlington name discarded, and the canopy looked like this.
