If I recall, the Lincoln Hotel was originally built as a Holiday Inn in
the early 1960s.  I remember reading about it in the Newark News at the
time.

In my time, the Lower Level of the DL&W Passaic River Bridge in Newark
was used only by freight trains from Harrison Yard to serve the team
track/freight house on Broad Street. This was one of two double-deck
railroad drawbridges in Newark (the other being the H& M/PRR drawbridge
downstream) when the station at Park Place was active.

Yes, I recall the Lincoln Hotel was built on the site of the DL&W
freight house and team tracks.
