Anyone know what is going on at the north side of 6th Ave. between 5th & 6th streets SW ?

The permit was released July 25th. Looks like these guys aren't wasting any time.

Certainly not a looker, but another new hotel under construction in the CBD is excellent news.

I don’t think we’ve ever seen the data on how many rooms will be in this one? Lemme do some digging… *autism activation*


Foop! 151 units. Larger than I thought. That’s awesome!

Thanks folks.

That's a big drill. How many basement levels are there? Anymore than one or two would benefit from a car elevator.

I'm not sure what the primary cladding is. Hampton is a lower end hotel. It wouldn't be fair to expect anything grand.

Found the DP online. A car elevator leading down to a subbasement with triple parking stackers. I guess it won't be self park for the budget brand.

Drill on site this morning. Guess this one is a go!

Nearing bottom of excavation I reckon.

Crane going up on 6th Ave just west of 5th St SW, across from the court house. Not sure which project this might be for?

Not many Steel buildings anymore. Especially without a central concrete core
