Ahwahnee Hotel Tresidder Suite Redesign
Yosemite National Park » Ahwahnee Hotel Tresidder Suite Redesign » Document List
Project Background: During extensive research at The Yosemite Research Library, the interior designers discovered the original furnishing style used to decorate the 6th floor when it was Don and Mary Curry Tressider's private apartment (1928-1970). Archival photographs that date to the Period of Significance (1927-1943) show that Colonial Willamsburg style was the Tressider's decorating taste.
Special Considerations: The 6th Floor would be unavailable for overnight accommodations for approximately two weeks. Guests may book comparable rooms elsewhere at The Ahwahnee.
Operational Concerns: Redecoration would have minimal impact on visitors. Work would occur during non-quiet daytime hours. Work is not expected to cause adverse noise in the hotel. The service elevator would be used to bring furniture and supplies to the 6th floor. Existing furnishings would be stored at the hotel or redistributed to other units in Yosemite.
