Kutsher’s is finally getting demolished, and it’s a rather sad ending to the illustrious history of the Catskills.
A Last Illicit Look Inside The Crumbling #Kutsher’s Resort Before It’s Razed http://t.co/sl9d5yJqVN— lawhawk (@lawhawk) May 21, 2014
I remember seeing Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons there along with the Mommas and the Papas in the Starlight Lounge. Meeting NBA basketball players and WWF wrestlers there. First kiss/crush. Skiing. Skating. Partying. Playing bingo and trivia (and winning at both). Eating obnoxious amounts of food (if you were going to order breakfast, make sure you ordered the bagels and lox on the side; you’d get 1/2 pound of the good stuff).
Now, all there are wishful dreaming that a casino will somehow reinvent the Catskills and the tourism industry. And empty lots and piles of rubble where the comedy greats and Hollywood stars once roamed.
