Islay Hotel? What Islay Hotel?

Just over two weeks ago I mentioned that the Islay Hotel Port Ellen Redevelopment was finally going to get under way. It looks like the first stage of the process is now complete, the old Islay Hotel is gone. This is how it looks now coming up Frederick Crescent from the Co-op:

For comparison you might want to take a look at a picture of almost exactly the same view timmy p took on 27/Aug/2007, just days before the demolition kicked off: View along Frederick Crescent with the old Islay Hotel. Here's a closer look at the hole:

Lots of space for something new now...
