Promoters Eye Million Dollar Coos Bay Hotel Plan
Oregon's peninsula hosts 40 acres of ground proposed for a million dollar hotel named Coos Bay Harbor with subsidies for 159 more acres. Offer hinges on public reaction and stronger subsidies, aiming for a resort rival to Del Monte and Del Coronado to attract Pacific coast tourists. A rail link and fleet-class hotel would boost regional tourism, with a separate note on a Coeur d'Alene hospital project.
