I'm hoping that's the Aloft Hotel that was proposed last year. Same lack of reason for that hotel too!

Downtown has only gained more developer attention, we have a healthy slew of proposals literally waiting on funding and approvals. Within one year time construction of ANOTHER 1000+ units in downtown core. 10 years ago they where searching for that first 1000k. San Jose encompasses 170+ sq miles, with downtown core depending how you look and how far you measure is one sq mile. Not all development has to be downtownAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923860625279115418.post-14353527152241470722014-04-03T10:54:00.938-07:002014-04-03T10:54:00.938-07:00Business people who works in those tech companies ...Business people who works in those tech companies in North San Jose would most likely be the targets of these North San Jose hotels. Downtown needs more wealthy residences, not necessarily hotels. There are quite a bit of hotels in and around Downtown already.<br /><br />There are also a lot of hotels in the Bellevue and Richmond area of Seattle's metro, due to the tech companies located there.

Downtown is losing a lot of development opportunities to North San Jose in terms of apartment and hotels despite 2 apartment towers and one hotel going up downtown. In Seattle, most would be focused downtown.Sad Josenoreply@blogger.com
