The Hilton hotel located next to the Oakland, California airport has permanently closed its doors after 56 years of operation. The closure comes amidst a backdrop of ongoing crime in the area, leading to the shutdown of several neighboring businesses and prompting residents to move away.
On August 28, the hotel bid farewell to its final guest, marking the end of an era for the establishment. Over 150 workers were left jobless as a result of the closure, with many expressing deep sadness over the sudden turn of events.
