I completely agree with Brad Dawson when he calls the Aloft Hotel “a mistake” and “better suited to Myrtle Beach” [“Is Asheville Becoming Boomtown, N.C.?” May 27, Xpress].
It seems that developers are clawing for a chance to get a piece of Asheville and that tourism promoters won’t be happy until the whole world wants to be here.
Preservation must have a stronger voice in the planning process, or Asheville will become as frenzied and unattractive as any overdeveloped resort.
