After the controversies against the construction of the Hotel in in forested land, they Hotel has finally started construction. While many dislike the idea I personally think it will be a great addition to the campus and a great move by our administrators. It will allow accommodations for future guests and for prospective students visiting the university. Having a Hotel in campus has many indirect benefits and places us among the few Universities nationally that have one. Hilton will be handed out the administration
Location:
The Hotel will be bounded by Circle Road to the west, Nicolls Road (CR-97) to the East, and the Main Entrance (Kenny Drive) to the North. Roughly 100 feet south of the Main campus entrance in front of the Administration Building Parking Lot.
Current Status:
I passed by the area a few weeks ago, and currently the construction is in the groundwork stages. No foundation has been laid yet since the last time I saw it.
Completion:
Scheduled to be completed in one to two years.
