End
of Days ... Purchased for $1.7 million at the end
of January 2007 by Maruti Hospitality Ltd., Cheektowaga
was quickly shuttered and its contents auctioned off.
New owners, Pravin Patel, Satish R. Patel and Satish B.
Patel, spent $2 million on renovations which included demolition
of the signature A-frame Gate Lodge and replacing it with
a garishly designed two-story addition to house a lobby
and breakfast room.
