The project is expected to employ 2,800 workers during construction and the project team has set aggressive residency goals, as well as minority- and women-owned business utilization goals to ensure a diverse, local workforce.
“We are excited to begin work with our partners on this iconic tower as it becomes part of the Cleveland skyline,” said Martin Burgwinkle, project executive. He continued, “Like the Cleveland Convention Center and the Global Center for Health Innovation, the hotel will be another community success story for Cuyahoga County and downtown Cleveland, by again exceeding local inclusion goals and spurring further economic activity in the County and City.”
The $272-million, 28-story hotel will have 600 guest rooms and will feature a rooftop bar. The hotel tower is positioned atop a four-story podium that houses ballrooms, meeting and retail spaces. It is scheduled to open in 2016.
