Fire Damages Cherry Grove, Fire Island Hotel

Thu, Sep 24, 2009 by AKA William

This is from yesterday, but I wanted to make sure I got it up in case anyone missed it.

Yesterday morning a fire broke out at Cherry Grove’s Grove Hotel, which, as some of you may know, is home the Ice Palace:

A fire damaged more than a dozen rooms of a Cherry Grove hotel early Tuesday morning.

The blaze broke out inside a housekeeping shed along the north side of the two story Grove Hotel around 2 a.m. Firefighters from Cherry Grove, the Fire Island Pines, Point O’ Woods, Ocean Bay Park, Ocean Beach, Saltaire and Sayville responded to the scene.

. . . “The north end of the hotel is completely burned down,” [the hotel manager] said.

The hotel’s manager Ramón Peña-Sierra, is remaining optimistic, saying, “We have all winter to rebuild. At least it didn’t happen in the middle of the summer.”
