Contractor selected for Houston's second convention hotel
Emily Wilkinson - Print Editor - Houston Business Journal
Rida Development Corp. has selected a joint venture contractor for Houston's newest convention hotel, which it is developing downtown.
Dallas-based Balfour Beatty Construction and Florida-based Welbro Building Corp. will construct the $335 million, 1,000-room Marriott Marquis. Balfour Beatty Construction is a subsidiary of London-based Balfour Beatty Plc.
The 30-story hotel will be one block north of Discovery Green near the George R. Brown Convention Center.
Preconstruction of the project will be ongoing throughout the remainder of the year and groundbreaking is anticipated in the first quarter.
