Oh Please! Don't call the K200D 'old'!
I can't afford to upgrade mine. I really can't....
Great shot, by the way. I wonder why the owners felt the need to mention

I'd guess the hotel was built *after* the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
Possibly a claim to "modern" building code standards for fire resistance
that grew out of that tragedy. Looks like late 19th or early 20th
