“part of El Mirador still stands on North Palm Canyon Drive, but only as a structure, warmly wrapped in memories. Waiting now for the final gesture. The final headline. It is scheduled now for demolition, except for the tower, to make room for additions to Desert Hospital. The tower will be kept on the hospital grounds. The great pool already is filled in.”
