This project will be the only Marriott product under the Classic Premium Marriott Brand in Downtown Nashville. There are two other planned Marriott branded hotels (Ritz-Carlton & Edition) and one that recently opened (W Hotel) in the Gulch. This project will also join a collection of new hotel developments in the Downtown core. The map below shows a sample of new hotel projects which are either planned or under construction.
A request for final site plan approval was submitted in June of last year for the Project. Since that time the project has been re-submitted with a few modifications. Although the resubmission has the same number of floors, the overall square footage, and number of rooms have increase; the project also has 3 fewer parking spaces than the previously proposed plans.
Once approved, the request will permit a hotel on the 0.78-acre site. The request was made by Alamo Manhattan Properties, LLC on behalf of the property Owners. Here’s the quick rundown:
