Considerably 
                      intact, the ranch or Nims-type Gate Lodge continued to serve 
                      as an office as recently as 2003. However Bob Venditti observed 
                      that the guest buildings had been greatly modified, losing 
                      patios in the process. 
                    Evidence 
                      indicates that the Thunderbird brand was a chain, but information 
                      is scant. Probably the last best known Thunderbird is the 
                      one that continues to operate at Treasure 
                      Island, Florida.   |
