MIDLAND | Hotel Santa Rita No.1 | FT | 12 FLOORS
After the developers of the proposed Energy Tower for downtown Midland pulled the plug on the project, the city of Midland now has a new proposal for the old courthouse site. Introducing the Hotel Santa Rita No.1 development by Overland Partners. This is more appropriate for the skyline for Midland at a maximum floor count of 17, than that of the Energy Tower. Here's the link to the story and renderings from the Midland Reporter-Telegram:

Glad to see a new plan for this site come about so quickly, though I still hope Midland ventures taller in the near future. The only thing better than enhancing an already iconic skyline is creating a brand new iconic skyline. :rolleyes:

For a city with so much growth in the past few years, it has seen very few proposals for signature projects. Let's hope this one is not a mirage.

This project though has a much better chance of happening since it better fits with what most Midlanders will feel comfortable with, and the team behind is being lead by several Midlanders also. If not the city of Midland has come up with plans of their own to build a new City Hall building on the location as well as additions to the park and Midland Center building. |
The City Council yesterday voted to have exclusive negotiations with the developers yesterday over the former courthouse property until March 31, 2015.

The City of Midland has given the developers of the $80-100 million Hotel Santa Rita the go ahead with the project after voting to give up to $11.95 million in infrastructure and park improvement tax incentives. The developers have also redesigned the building by reducing the number of floors from 17 to 15 and removing residential space in favor of a 4-story above ground parking garage.
The hotel will feature 120 hotel rooms, office, retail space, special event space, a whiskey bar, rooftop terraces and outdoor pools, an upscale restaurant, fitness club, and an Epicurean market.
