Different dates[edit]

In the article it says "[the hotel] was built in 1924" while "Hotel Florida in the year 1920" can be read under the photo. One of the two dates must be wrong. --95.20.73.134 (talk) 12:33, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the date in the photo. Construction of the building began in 1922.[1] Diego (talk) 13:16, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
