Waldorf Astoria Shanghai, was redesigned and rebuilt by my grandpa’s brother George Christopher Wingrove in early 1920’s. The building used to be a British gentlemen club, then a Jewish club. Granduncle Chris added an extra wing for the hotel plaza, then the club changed to hotel ever since.
Wow, that is an amazing story, you must be so proud to somehow be a part of Shanghai history. This hotel really is beautiful, and breathes luxury and history
