For out-of-town and international readers, the Vinoy hotel in downtown St. Petersburg is one of the area's stately pink hotels -- the other being the Don CeSar on St. Pete Beach. The Vinoy, built in 1925, is on the National Register of Historic Places. From 1974, when it closed, to the early '90s, when it was re-habed, the once-luxury hotel became a shelter for vagrants. After regaining its luxurious cred, it is now the home to one of the priciest Sunday brunches in town, and according to this Boston Herald blog, is where former Red Sox pitcher Scott Williamson saw a ghost (near bottom of post).
And those St. Pete city elves: where DOES that attitude come from?
