Eau Claire hotel gets approval

According to the article
"Developer Cadillac Fairview told council they’re ready to begin construction immediately at 2 St. and 2 Ave. S.W. despite the economic downturn."


It also looks like the Hotel is a Fairmont.

You should see the three buildings on the other three corners of that intersection. They are even more cold and sterile, and it makes for a super lifeless intersection after hours.

How's the north end facing the market?
