I propose an idea. That when Hetch Hetchy is officially drained, there shall be a massive Hotel. The biggest that Yosemite has ever built!
Which I like to call it as THE JOHN MUIR LODGE. It needs to be themed like a Massive Scottish Manor/Castle, to honor the Homeland on which where he is born and raised.
It needs to have have 2023 rooms, as a way to Mark the 100th anniversary of when Construction of O'Shaughnessy Dam completed.
It also needs to have 175 Cottages, because the number 75 in 175, marks the age when John Muir lost the battle of saving hatch hatch originally.
All the Cottages will be in five clustering groups of 35. One group will have one bedroom, the next one will have two bedrooms, then three bedrooms, then four bedrooms and finally five bedrooms.
The location for the Lodge and Cottages, will be as close as possible to the Southeastern tip of the valley. so you won't see the lodge right in the main part of the valley. As a way to keep the valley as it was when John Muir was in, where no buildings were built on it yet.
Another Idea, is to build a Hetch Hetchy Museum, that celebrates the history and Legacy of the valley. Filled with Hand-On Displays and Interactive Media. Including elevators that go up and down several floors of the museum, that need to have a thrilling and immersive like experience, based on these one’s that are used for the One World Trade Center Observatory.

Including the Original Full-Length Walkway of the O'Shaughnessy Dam, and the underground Wapama Tunnel that takes you to the trail. Which will be rerouted when the valley is fully restored.
The Beginning of the Museum Experience needs to have a Pre-Show Experience. Based off the same one at the Space Shuttle Atlantis Experience at Kennedy Space Center.

Which you end up looking out of a Massive Wide Three-Story Floor-To-Ceiling Window Wall.
I hope you love these two ideas in mind, that I would like to see come through full fruition. When the valley is officially and fully restored.
THANK YOU. AND LETS RESTORE THE THIS PLACE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
