The Waterfront Hotel, one of Oakland's most iconic hotels, is closing its doors for good Friday, marking a significant blow to the city's economic landscape.
Derreck Johnson, who owns a restaurant in Jack London, says the Waterfront Hotel closing is a big deal because small mom and pop stores are dependent on big anchors.
Housed in a 1840s heritage building, The Tasman is the newest luxury hotel in Hobart. Celebrating the city’s unique local character and pioneering past, these sweet digs will open in December 2021.
