Headquarters hotel developer Portman unveils new images of $470 million project, announces team

–

The developer of the new, $470 million convention center hotel plans an 800-room facility with a rooftop pool, interior traffic circle to take related traffic off the street and ballrooms filled with natural light, unlike the window-less ones of old.

Skanska USA, with Bayer Becker as the civil engineering partner and Piper Sandler as the capital markets partner.

“In our architecture treatment, we’ve tried to pick up influences from what’s around. So there’s actually a brick façade. There’s a lot of focus on incorporating the indoor and the outdoor,” he said.

The convention center hotel will likely have one of three flags: Marriott, Hilton or Hyatt. Once planning is finalized and the hotel receives the city and county’s OK, Portman will put the flag out for bid.

Once financing is lined up, construction is estimated to begin in the second quarter of 2024, with a 30 to 33-month construction timeline.
