Summary
Title, date and keywords based on information provided by the photographer.
For most of its history, the hotel was owned by the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway and its successors, including the CSX Corporation. Following years of heavy losses, CSX placed the hotel into bankruptcy in 2009. Justice Family Group, LLC, a company owned by local entrepreneur Jim Justice, bought the property and guaranteed all debts, resulting in dismissal of the bankruptcy. Justice promised to return the hotel to its former status as a five-star resort and to introduce "tasteful" gambling for guests as a revenue enhancer. While the huge hotel and its championship golf courses are the Greenbrier's main attractions, there is another, less opulent one: a massive underground bunker that was meant to serve as an emergency shelter for the United States Congress during the Cold War.
