Is Richard Gere the New George Clooney?
Richard Gere’s very own hotel project, a 14-acre country hotel in Bedford, New York, has been turned down by the town who said the plans did not include any handicap access. Gere and his partner Russell Hernandez spent $2.7 million on the property “with hopes of converting the 18th century barn into an upmarket complex, complete with country inn and restaurant.” For now the duo are going back to the drawing board to figure out how to keep the barn’s historic structure while modernizing the entrances for handicap access. We don’t like to bring up Las Ramblas but it’s worth a mention here. However, at least Gere had some plans to put forth before a town board. Clooney and friends didn’t even get that far.
