Europa Adjacent
Those in the know should recognise the building on the right as the Europa Hotel in Belfast, Northern Ireland. For those not yet in the know, its website says it has the dinstinction of being “known as the world’s most bombed hotel, having been targeted 33 times between 1970 and 1994.” Fortunately, those days appear to have ended with The Troubles, and the hotel has a rich and intriguing history beyond the bombings. For example – for you railroad history buffs – the hotel sits on the former site of Belfast’s Great Northern Railway Station.
