...venerable U.S. hotel chain known as "the nation's innkeeper," whose green-and-yellow signs are familiar landmarks on American highways, will soon take on a British accent. Last week Memphis-based Holiday Corp. said that it will sell its North American chain of more than 1,400 Holiday Inns for $2.2 billion to British pub-and-brewery giant Bass PLC. The sale completes a global acquisition for the London-based company, which last year bought the rights to Holiday Inn franchises outside North America...

...years, Harvard has been the city's biggest landlord. This year it grew even bigger. A year ago, Harvard Real Estate (HRE) unveiled plans to build a five-story "limited convenience" hotel on property across from the Harvard Union. In the fall, the University purchased the Quality Motor Inn and the Bence Pharmacy building on Mass. Ave. And in March, Harvard purchased from the St. Paul's Rectory the largest undeveloped plot in the Square...
