Graduate Auburn Hotel Reaches Construction Milestone

Graduate Auburn Hotel in Auburn, Alabama recently celebrated structural completion of the project with a topping out ceremony.

The five-story, 177-room, nearly 140,000-square-foot hotel has direct views of Auburn’s campus and Toomer’s Corner. It will feature an indoor-outdoor rooftop bar, ground-floor café and meeting and banquet space.

The property will be the newest in the Graduate Hotels collection, which includes more than 30 locations in iconic cities and college towns across the United States and United Kingdom. Designs are inspired by local culture, history and collegiate nostalgia.

During the topping out ceremony, the project team hosted the Auburn University Raptor Center – an educational and rehabilitation program that has treated and released thousands of birds of prey back into the wild – to perform a demonstration flight and education session for attendees.

The project is scheduled for completion this fall.

Robins & Morton is the general contractor, and Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture is the architect.
