PS...
Here's my chosen hotel - the former Highland Inn in Algonquin Park. Got a partly built model of it several years ago, but have not done anything further with it. One day, it will get its own module set that includes the station and boat house / pavilion on the waterfront.

The above image shows the hotel in the 1940s or thereabouts. A road (Hwy 60) was built through Algonquin Park in the 1930s as a make work (now we call it economic stimulus) project.
Here's what you could do in the 1910s through 30s. Grand Trunk was the original builder (1908) and owner before being absorbed into Canadian National in the early 1920s.

Demolished by the Government in 1958 or so.
