Very sad. I visited the Catskills frequntly in the late 1950's and 1960's and the Concord was the number one resort. The older Grossinger's was more traditional. The movie Dirty Dancing was based on the local youth culture during that period.

I’m afraid that “Dirty Dancing” is the only thing that most FReepers know about the Borscht Belt, an area born of and killed by technology.
