College Square Rendering Reveals RAMSA Influence

A new rendering of the College Square project appears on the Centerplan website, showing the design influence of Robert A.M. Stern Architects. Groundbreaking for the anticipated five-star hotel portion of this project is still planned for this fall, with completion scheduled for 2011. The building is situated directly across the street from Cesar Pelli's new high school.

According to developer Robert Landino, the hotel will be a "full-service luxury hotel with 240 rooms with a full package of amenities that will complement the neighborhood, business community and [Yale-New Haven] hospital."

Glad to see this project is still in the pipeline. I thought it was dead. At first glance it reminds me of the Taft.

The Taft, but cheaper. These days, buildings are not constructed in the same way as the magnificent brick work that was crafted around the turn of last century. I predict that this proposal will be panelized brick and EFS (fast-food type stucco) after budget-tightening measure are taken. This style is just out-dated.
