Part 2 of “Grossinger’s has everything” goes into the demise of not just the hotel but the Catskill area. This episode is part of a 2 part series; please listen to episode 1 to get the back story and see the post for images of what Grossinger’s looked like. On the find it website you can find my photos, followed by some from guest Marisa Scheinfeld (with permission) and then some from Harold. Below that you will find the image from a fellow urbex-er that was the image he sent me that made me so emotional. finditpodcast.com Facebook group Guests in order of appearance: Harold Lieberman Jennie G enthusiast and otherwise Grossinger loverFB group where we met: https://www.facebook.com/groups/grossingers/ Elaine Grossinger Etess Daughter of Harry and Jennie Grossinger.
