The entity in the second visual was intentionally ‘not named’ for the entity in the first. Name both and connect.

The Hoa Lo Prison (Visual 1), later known to American prisoners of war as the ‘Hanoi Hilton’, was a prison used by the French colonists in Vietnam for political prisoners and later by North Vietnam for prisoners of war during the Vietnam War. There is now a Hilton Hotel in Hanoi, called the ‘Hilton Hanoi Opera Hotel’ (Visual 2), which opened in 1999. It was built decades after the Vietnam War was over, but Hilton carefully avoided reusing the dreaded name ‘Hanoi Hilton’. 

Cracked by 7 of you! In order – citibank(rupt), CR, Thomas Masun, Thejaswi Udupa, Akila, Gaurav and Rohan. Good crack!
