Under-construction by the end of 2017 is doable if he's got everything teed up and ready to go, including construction loans, contractors, permits, hotel brand buy-in, etc. Sutton Co. is not know for being incredibly proactive. I'm guessing he's being optimistic about the start dates because he's speaking at the Bisnow Multifamily Conference. He still has a window to pull this off so I wouldn't count him out. I'm not entirely optimistic that it will happen this development cycle, however. [In both of these quotes, the
emphasis is mine.]

Likewise, he’s already nearly finalized the flags for the Waller Park Place hotel project, and says that market is strong.

Mac hopes to be under construction on the multifamily/office building by the end of 2017; he tells us his team will start the permit process almost immediately.
