He advised that the hotel is within a total parcel of land under negotiation by the.Redevelopment Agency and proposed developers, and should restoration of the hotel prove to be infeasible or incompatible with the development concept, the marketability of the site would be severely limited. The owners of the Pickwick Hotel building have been informed that in its present substandard condition, the hotel would not fit into downtown redevelopment, and he stated if it were included on the National Register at this time, it could be a detriment to development in the area. The Maloney Garage is located within the designated right -of -way for Anaheim Boulevard, and previous investigation revealed that to restore the older original structure only would require realignment of the boulevard right -of -way 10 feet westerly, and would require additional changes to the proposed improved street, causing a hazardous condition.
