The St. Francis Hotel In Two Timelines

"The speech ended to applause and the split screen showed pan shots as the network cameras swept over Baumgartner's campaign workers, who packed the ballroom of the famous old St Francis Hotel."
-Julian May, Intervention (London, 1988), 9, p. 474.

"They met downtown next morning, in the anachronistic opulence of the St. Francis Hotel lobby."
-Poul Anderson, The Shield Of Time (New York, 1991), PART SIX, 1990 A.D., p. 430.

Baumgartner's campaign is in 1996 but these are different timelines.
