Yet Another Haymarket Proposal

By: Mr. Wilson on June 18, 2009
I don't have a lot of faith in this actually happening, but what the heck: Speedway Properties wants to open a hotel in the Haymarket near 8th and Q. The project would involve The Tool House building, along with a neighboring building that would be torn down. I wish I didn't have to be so cynical about the project's odds, but let's face it, major project proposals in the Haymarket and Downtown have had a very low probability of happening and/or matching the initial grand plan. If it does happen? Three cheers! But I'll withhold my excitement until there's some actual construction. Ditto for the nearby WRK hotel proposal. Of that project Will Scott has said "We're still full speed ahead. We could be looking at demolition within the next few months." That's awfully fuzzy talk for a project that's moving full speed ahead.

I have more faith in the Speedway guys than the WRK wonder twins.
