I agree that the hotel construction is a key part of making downtown more attractive on many levels. We are fortunate to have the Residence Inn going up near 5 Points; the new Hyatt Place is under construction further down 20th street South; and the new Renaissance Hotel slated to start construction this summer on 20th street north. If the entertainment district can get off the ground, the Aloft Hotel has already committed, and probably at least one more will be announced. This will all add up to maybe 800-900 new hotel rooms downtown. Not a huge number, but it's a great start.
