This is a huge sign of how serious they are because that group is very well-seasoned and not cheap to work with. If Grasso is using them, they are serious about the success of the project, and not cutting corners by using a local broker not equipped to marketing and selling something this huge. I didn't get any pricing information as I've been told that they're still working on the unit mix for the residences. But the hotel committment definitely accounts for at least two-thirds of the total square footage and is enough to get this off the ground.
Wow...very exciting, indeed. Thanks for the info.
