Loews Hotel NOT Cancelled - Yet
https://www.bizjournals.com/memphis/...loews-for.html
Don't understand why the CA did not report it like the Memphis Business Journal but this better explains it. City could choose between 100 N. Main and Loews for convention center hotel |
Quote:
In my personal opinion, both projects should happen, but it all depends on finances and whether or not the downtown market can support having three convention hotels in close proximity to each other. |

As I expected, the (2) 30-story towers have been replaced with a smaller annex. Not a surprise with the proposed Clipper development rising higher and Union Row contemplating office square footage. Also, more waiting in the wings with the proposed One Beale tower (future phase), Pinch District redevelopment, etc. Personally, I thought the best use for 100 N. Main was hotel due to floor plate height. Then use the Civic Plaza space for possible future convention center expansion, i.e. a 2nd major convention hall. Either way, still a great project. I like all the ideas out there.
Why and how Townhouse wants to slim down Memphis' tallest tower By Jacob Steimer – Staff Reporter, Memphis Business Journal Quote:

I agree. I caught this from the article: "The annex would be built so that that a pair of towers for residential and/or office use could be built on top in the future." I would guess that would be in the future depending on the market etc. 100 N Main and the Loew's are both great proposals.. if it saves 100 N Main from sitting blighted this may make more sense. Would love to see both in a perfect world but interested to see how it plays out. Also, with all these office tower proposals I'm curious what will end up being built. I'm betting on the Clipper being the most likely and the fastest. I would guess followed by One Beale and Union Row I think have a shot depending on who they could line up for tenants. |

Southland Hotel is moving forward at fast pace
Southland Casino awards Miss. contractor its $200M expansion project
https://www.bizjournals.com/memphis/...-its-200m.html Casino's would have made Memphis a boom city long ago had Memphis not been part of Tennessee. Casino's don't beg for pilots or other funds as much and every day of production lost is a loss of funds to them so they move along very fast with projects. According to a release, work on the project is expected to start immediately, with substantial completion anticipated by January 2021. The contract value will be included in Tutor Perini’s first quarter 2019 backlog. |

Arkansas is still basically a duopoly between the Cella's(Oaklawn)and Deleware(Southland). Now Pope Co. Can get one(Russellville) but it will be a hard fought battle to get it approved. Hard Rock wants to build a resort casino there. Arkansas really limited itself. There's no Northwest Arkansas option, Eureka Springs/south of Branson option or Texarkana option. |
