"The AMBASSADOR HOTEL, 3400 , a vast rambling structure whose spreading tile-roofed wings faintly suggest the buildings of northern Italy, sits far back from the street behind a huge expanse of lawn and is surrounded by its cottages. In the hotel are a bank, brokerage office, post office, library, 35 retail shops, and a motion-picture theatre; on the grounds are a swimming pool with artificial beaches of white sand and an 18-hole course."
