Update on this today

A $280 million, 50-story hotel project planned for 1441 Chestnut Street will house a four-star luxury W Hotel; a three-star, extended-stay Element hotel by Westin; 10,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, including a restaurant; an outdoor pool and bar; meeting space; and a spa and fitness center. There will be two lobbies, the W at street level and the Westin Element a short elevator ride up. Both brands are owned by Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc. Brook J. Lenfest, the developer, is aiming to have the project be LEED-certified. Subject to all components of financing coming together, construction could start in late spring or early summer.
