Fairfield Inn

[Pete]

Pete,

Were you able to find out if this will be an all brick structure? Or when we will see design plans?

You mean for the Canopy?

No, no design has been revealed and now they even have another group competing for the Canopy flag on the Bodyworks site.

So, I have no idea where that project stands right now.

I'm sorry Pete, I was referring to this new Fairfield. Will it be an all brick structure to keep consistent with some of the other brick buildings in the area?

A beautiful 5-story brick building that is lit up at night would be a great start to this area. While I worked in the hotel industry downtown, we always talked about this area potentially being a great hotel district.

It is close to Bricktown and has great highway access, along with access to the future boulevard and proximity to the Chesapeake Arena and river. It's also filled with a ton of old metal warehouses that no one will miss or be upset about if they are all torn down to make way for a string of hotels that are 5-10 stories in height, perhaps even a couple of restaurants.
