NEW DEXTER WILL BE A MODEL
Enlargement will Make Best Hotel in Peninsula
Modern Refrigeration Plant Will Supply Three Hundred Pounds of Ice a Day
[Welland Telegraph, 4 August 1914]
Great progress is being made by Contractor Diffin on the new addition of the New Dexter Hotel. The new part, which is constructed of solid brick and tile, is three stories, all the walls of which have been completed and the roof on. The interior of the structure means the most work. The second floor rooms each have a private tub and shower bath. The balance of the rooms, fifteen in number, are to be finished in the most modern style. The walls between each room are absolutely sound deadened. The most modern fire fighting appliances are also being installed throughout. The wiring has all been placed in conduit pipes and a return call bell system is in each room. E.A. Spachmann has the electrical work. For the greater convenience of commercial travellers four sample rooms are on the first floor of the new addition. The greatest feature of the enlargement of this hotel is the refrigeration plant, and is the first one in Welland. By this plant all the boxes in the bar and kitchen are refrigerated and will be constructed so as to freeze three hundred pounds of ice a day for house use.
