You are correct. I did in fact, mean "Four Seasons" and not DoubleTree. I agree with you in that other similar projects should start to rise where none had done so before. We shall see.

Interesting though, I believe I remember one of the original proposals for the downtown hotel - aka The Hilton today - it included a spire (popular in the 90's) and it also was supposed to have been topped by condos.
