The Belleview Inn (Belleview Biltmore)

Railroad tycoon Henry B. Plant built the Belleview Biltmore in 1897, and it grew into one of Florida's grandest Gilded Age resorts, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. Demolition began on most of the hotel in May 2015, but its original 1897 core was saved: in December 2016, crews lifted the 1,750-ton section onto hydraulic dollies, rotated it 90 degrees, and rolled it 375 feet east, one of the heaviest framed buildings ever moved. Restored as the Belleview Inn, a 35-room boutique hotel, it reopened in December 2018. The old hotel's ghost stories are long and well documented: Henry Plant's wife is said to still walk the halls, a bride reportedly leapt to her death from a fourth-floor balcony after her new husband died in a car accident, and Maisie Plant is said to still be searching for a piece of lost jewelry. Reports include drawers opening, doors slamming, lights switching on and off, chairs moving, disembodied voices and footsteps, and the sensation of being touched or watched.
