Yet another downtown hotel planned

A Charlotte developer wants to build what would be the 13th hotel along the Main Street corridor.

Tara Investments plans a Hyatt Place at the corner of East Broad and Calvin streets, according to an application on file at City Hall.

The development site is next to the office building that houses the Elliott Davis Decosimo accounting firm.

Five hotels are already in business along the corridor, three more are under construction and plans for four others have been announced amid high demand for downtown lodging.

The hotels under construction or planned would more than double the number of hotel rooms currently in the Main Street corridor from 860 to 1,962.
