Ihhotela langempela lango-1868 lavalwa ngo-2003; yabhidlizwa ngo-2005, kwavulwa nendawo entsha ngo-2010 kuyo leyo ndawo eyayigcina isimo nokubukeka kwayo kwasekuqaleni, kanye negama layo langempela. Kokubili okwangempela nokwakhiwa kabusha kwayo kuyaziwa ngokwakhiwa kwawo kweVictoria nokwakheka okuphuzi okwehlukile.

I-Ocean House yasekuqaleni kwakuyihhotela lokugcina elingaphansi kolwandle lamaVictoria ezwekazini iRhode Island.

I-Ocean House ekuqaleni yakhiwa ngo-1868. Yayincane kunenye amahhotela etholakala eWatch Hill, kepha yanda ngokungezwa okuningi eminyakeni edlule. I-Ocean House yasekuqaleni yayiyisakhiwo esimaphakathi esifundeni saseWatch Hill Historic District, esibhalwe kuRejista Kazwelonke Yezindawo Zomlando.

NgoMashi 2004, abakwaGirouard Associates baseNew Canaan, eConnecticut, bathenga lesi sakhiwo ezindlalifa zomndeni wakwaLouis D. Miller, owawuphethe leli hhotela kusukela ngo-1938. IGirouard Associates yayihlose ukuqhumisa i-Ocean House nokwakha amakhaya amahlanu amakhulu olwandle, kodwa kwaba nombhikisho. kulandela. Ekugcineni kwatholakala umthengi omusha, kanti ngenkathi kugcinwa umoya wesakhiwo sokuqala, isakhiwo sangempela sasingekho.

Izinto ezihlobene nokuvalwa kwe-Ocean House yasekuqaleni zibandakanya ukungabi bikho kwezinsiza zesimanje, isimo sayo esonakele, nokungahambisani kwayo nemithetho yokwakha yamanje. I-Ocean House yasekuqaleni yayisebenza ngezikhathi ezithile, ivulwa cishe izinyanga ezintathu ngonyaka, futhi ibhilidi lalingenakho ukufudumeza, umoya opholile kanye nohlelo lokungenisa umoya. Eminyakeni yokugcina yokusebenza kwayo, izitezi ezimbili eziphezulu bezingasetshenziswanga futhi amakamelo angama-59 kuphela abekwazi ukusetshenzelwa ngaphandle kwasekuqaleni kuka-159. Indawo egugile ibingenazo izinsiza ezidingekayo, imisebenzi yezinsizakalo, izidingo ze-egress, izidingo zokutholakala kwabakhubazekile, nokupaka ukuhlangabezana namakhodi anamuhla. Isihloko sephephandaba sichaze isimo saso sokugcina: “Izitebhisi ezinkulu aziyi ndawo. Amanzi emvula angena phakathi kwezindonga bese ehlela phansi ngemisele efaka izintambo. Ikheshi le-oki liphukile. ”

Lesi sakhiwo esineminyaka engu-138 besingahambisani namakhodi akhona esikhathi samanje namakhodi okuphepha empilweni. Isakhiwo saso sokhuni sonakaliswe ukufakwa ngokungakhethi kwezinsiza zikagesi, igesi, namapayipi, kanye nokuvuselelwa kabusha kwamakamelo okufaka izindlu zangasese ezizimele. Amakhodi omlilo aseRhode Island abuyekezwa futhi aqiniswa kakhulu ngemuva komlilo we-nightclub weSiteshi Sakwa-2003, okwenza amaphutha angenakunqotshwa e-Ocean House. Ukuhambisana nezindinganiso zamanje zokuphepha kwempilo, kufaka phakathi lezo zamawindi alinganiswe yisiphepho anamafreyimu amasha, isisekelo esisha sikakhonkolo esinezinsimbi zokubopha insimbi kuyo yonke indawo, sikhumula konke upende wokuhola wangaphakathi nengaphandle, nokususwa kwesikhunta sangaphakathi esidinga ukudilizwa kokuqedwa kwangaphakathi.

Ngo-2004, i-Ocean House yayingavunyelwe ukuvula ngenxa yokushoda kwamakhodi; ihhotela lokuqala layeka ukusebenza ngo-2003 lathengiswa. Umphakathi ufunde ngoMashi 2004 ukuthi unjiniyela ovela ngaphandle kwedolobha uhlele ukubamba i-Ocean House nokwakha amakhaya amahlanu endaweni yawo, ngakho-ke abagqugquzeli baqala umkhankaso wokusindisa lesi sakhiwo futhi balondoloze ukufinyelela kwesiza somphakathi nolwandle. Laba bahleli bahlanganisa abamele iPreserve Rhode Island, iRhode Island Historical Preservation, neKhomishini yamaGugu, kanjalo neNational Trust.

Isakhiwo sokuqala sidiliziwe, futhi kwakhiwa isakhiwo esisha esizeni.

Abakhi bamaphrojekthi bahlangabezana nokumelana nokudilizwa kwe-Ocean House, kepha baphikisana ngempumelelo yokwakhiwa kabusha. Baphakamise ibhilidi elalingiswa njenge-Ocean House yasekuqaleni njengoba kwakuyincopho yalo, cishe ngonyaka we-1908. Lokhu kungavumela ihhotela elinamakamelo angama-49 elifanelekile esilinganisweni semigwaqo yalo eseduze, ngenkathi linweba libheke ebhishi lapho kungahlala khona amakhondomu angama-23. Futhi izoyivumela ukuthi ibe nezinsizakusebenza nemisebenzi yesevisi engenza iphrojekthi isebenze kahle nangokonga.

Isakhiwo sokuqala sase-Ocean House sadilizwa ngoDisemba 2005 kwabuye kwavulwa isakhiwo esalandela ngo-2010.

Kwakha kabusha ukusikwa kwasekuqaleni futhi kubuyise imininingwane ethile yangempela esuswe ngesikhathi kuqhubeka ukusebenza kwesikhungo, njengophahla lwangempela lwe-mansard nendawo yokubasa yomlilo. Iphinde ifake izinto ezintsha, kufaka phakathi izindawo ezingaphansi komhlaba namaphiko amabili amasha avela esakhiweni esikhulu, esivikela nezindawo zokuhlala ezingomakhelwane emisebenzini yamahhotela.

Isakhiwo sokuqala sabhalwa phansi, futhi ubukhulu nokuphakama konke kwagcinwa, kufaka phakathi ubukhulu nendawo yamawindi. Izingcezu zangempela zesakhiwo sokuqala zasindiswa futhi umklamo uphindaphinda amakholomu, izihloko, nezinto ezenziwe ngokhuni. Izinto ezingafinyelelwa ngumuntu ziyizinkuni ngenkathi imininingwane engenakufinyeleleka yenziwa ngezinto zokwenziwa okulula ukuzinakekela.

Lesi sikhungo esisha sinamakamelo wezivakashi angama-49 nezindawo ezingama-23 zokuhlala amakhondomu kanye namagumbi okuhlangana, i-spa, ithanga, iphuli, isikhungo sokuzivocavoca nezindawo zokudlela. Idizayini ibuye inikeze imisebenzi yesevisi edingekayo esikhungweni sesimanje: emakhishini asesikhathini, ukulayishwa kwamachweba, amakamelo amashini, izidingo zomlilo (isib.
