Coeur d'Alene City Council declared a temporary moratorium on demolishing historic buildings.
The City of Coeur d'Alene says City Council found that there was an "imminent threat to public health, safety and welfare from the loss of important historic and cultural assets" in the downtown area, excluding homes.
The Roosevelt Inn was established in 1905 in Coeur d'Alene, and after this week's City Council meeting, the building and others like it are under this six-month moratorium.
