Radisson Oklahoma City Northwest
The Wyndham Hotel along NW Expressway and May Ave. is now under new ownership and is receiving a $6 million renovation.
This 9-story hotel was built in 1969 as a Hilton Inn Northwest.
At the time, a whole series of new highrises were built near Lake Hefner, including the Founders Tower.

It was a growing and important section of northwest OKC.
The hotel has changed flags several times over the years -- most recently operating under the Wyndham banner.
But it was falling into disrepair under the former owners who were apparenty having financial problems.
The new ownership plans to fully renovate the building and reopen as the 'Radisson Oklahoma City Northwest'.

Demolition work has already started.

Quote:
With new ownership in place and a vision that looks to the future, a complete top to bottom renovation has begun on the former Wyndham Hotel Oklahoma City.
Interior demolition of the rooms, restaurant, lobby, registration area and event venues began in early September and will continue through December.
Total investment in the newly renovated hotel is over $6 Million.
The new property will reopen in January 2020 as the Radisson Oklahoma City Northwest.

This is but one of several renovations (and changes) undertaken recently in that section of NW Expresway near Lake Hefner.
Probably worthy of a full roundup post, if I get around to it.
