Weirs vacant lot?

thru the unreliable grapevine-heard may be lodging/conference building, could be quite nice.

Please be anything but more housing developments.

Would be an absolutely epic spot for a modern hotel or restaurant. Maybe even a little village of shops similar to Mill Falls.

A hotel would be the best option, also the option that probably has a 1% chance of ever happening. The Weirs desperately needs to replenish its hotel room stock that is within walking distance. There's only about 175 motel rooms left by my estimation, and those are pushing into the 60-80 year old range now. We need rooms that appeal to the traveler who wants more out of their hotel stay, like indoor pools, gym, breakfast, meeting space, etc.

In the end, it'll probably just be more bike week parking.

I'd love to see them build a hotel with a conference facility. In my past life I would attend 80 conferences/meetings each year. Make Weirs great again!

By a local source, that there will be a hotel/ conference center built there. Supposedly with a music venue and ballroom. Construction beginning in the fall of 2016.

This could be a very nice addition to an area needing one.
