HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Interim City Manager Mary Grace Clements said work on the new Hilton Garden Inn will start soon.
"I had a wonderful and great meeting with the developer," Clements said. "We want to make sure, we have conference calls with the city workers and with his development team to make sure that we're moving the project forward. We're very focused. You can ask anyone on our team. They are very aware of the priority this is. We are hoping and believe that the shovels will hit the ground Oct. 30."
This starts the clock on a project that will be done in early 2025.
"We know that we have to get this project open and ready by February of 2025," Clements said. "We're also excited, there will be an Old Chicago in that restaurant, with a conference center."
There are 20 full-time and 40 part-time jobs projected, with 40,000 to 59,000 visitors per year.
