Re: Holiday Inn Express
This is ridiculous. I hope the urban design committee shoots this down. Avis Scaramucci, owner of Nonna's, expressed concern that the Hampton Inn would have stucco on the top 2 floors. At least that structure will be mostly brick.
It looks like a suburban Holiday Inn Express. Like one you'd find on Memorial Rd. I figured for Bricktown it would be mostly brick, but it doesn't appear that way from the picture. It looks all stucco except for the corners, which are brick.
I hate to say this, but it looks worse than most of Randy Hogan's buildings.
I'd rather they try to put the hotel inside the old Steffen's Building. Boy, that's a novel concept.
It's the same thing Avis did when she built her Bricktown restaurant.
I hope the Bricktown Urban Design Committe doesn't make a mistake here.
I'm not oppsed to cheaper hotel rooms in Bricktown, but not at the expense of losing the area's charm.
I hope everyone will email them and express their disapproval.
