My wife and I got married in the Tiki Bar @ The Waldorf in 2010 , it is a real treasure . Sadly in todays world it has has no equal, most if not all of these spaces are long gone . I love the Tiki Bar but don't think it was utilised to it's full potential in the traditional sense , it became a DJ oriented hipster hangout with the current management , most patrons had no appreciation for the space , it's history or what it represents , or tiki culture . I honestly hope this is saved , and moving forward is preserved in the traditional sense . This may not make economic sense to the new owners ,to keep the bar as it stands , tiki is (Iknow) a niche market , but history and diversity I believe is important in every community/city , we ned to preserve things from our past

Thanks
