Hotel Selection Advisory Committee to host public meeting tomorrow
Indianapolis – The Indianapolis Local Public Improvement Bond Bank’s Hotel Selection Advisory Committee will host a public meeting to receive input, opinion and comment from stakeholders and the general public on the proposed downtown convention hotel developments.
When: Tuesday, November 14
3 p.m.
Where: Indiana Convention Center
Room 138
The Hotel Selection Advisory Committee is currently reviewing three proposals for a new downtown convention hotel. Browning Marcus Joint Venture is proposing to build an Intercontinental Hotel located at Pan Am Plaza. Starwood/Host Hotels is proposing to expand the existing Westin. Whiteco Industries is proposing to build several Marriott-brand hotels, including a JW Marriott, on the southwest corner of West and Washington Streets.
In September, Mayor Bart Peterson appointed the seven-member advisory committee to gather more information about the three remaining proposals.
The advisory committee is scheduled to deliver a recommendation to the Bond Bank and the City of Indianapolis later this month.
