Dedication of Lincoln Wing
On February 12, the Chalfonte dedicated the former “Annex” wing as the “Lincoln Wing” in celebration of the 200th birthday of President Abraham Lincoln and his connection with the Chalfonte Hotel. Known as a great humanitarian, the Chalfonte pays tribute to our 16th president for his intervention to save the life of Civil War soldier Henry Sawyer, the first owner of the Chalfonte. Improvements of this wing include the addition of five private baths.
