in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

A site in Hot Springs National Park was once leased to the Arlington Hotel Company. That lease ends March 6, 1932, after the hotel burned down in 1923. After that, the site must be kept for park and landscaping use, with no new hotel lease allowed.

This section covers a specific site inside Hot Springs National Park, fronting Central Avenue and Fountain Street. The Secretary of the Interior had leased that site to the Arlington Hotel Company under a 1912 law, and the company's hotel and bathhouse stood there until it burned down on April 5, 1923. When that lease expires on March 6, 1932, the United States must keep, retain, and maintain the site for park and landscaping purposes. The Secretary of the Interior cannot grant a new lease for building another hotel, bathhouse, or other structure on that site.
