It truly was amazing. At that time, I lived on 19th street in Philadelphia. The four seasons hotel is also on 19th. When I heard that there was a press conference scheduled for the four seasons, I called a friend of mine who was working there and asked him about it. He said “we’ve been getting a lot of calls, but nothing is scheduled to be here”.
I hung up and was glued to the news, trying to figure out what was going on.
When they went live from four seasons total landscaping, I felt like the whole planet tilted to its side. I had lost my balance watching this unfold on the tv.
I regret not going down there.
