I so agree with you Jonny! I haven't missed visiting the Leather Mart for the past 15 years and loved every minute of it. I was so nice when the venues were The Hyatt Hotel, The Marriott Marquis, and The Palmer House; but now since it has been at The Congress Hotel for the past few years it has deteriorated somewhat. IML has announced tentative new dates for 2020 which are September 24-27, but Alas!, still at the Congress.
