History

The project, originally named Hotel Clare, was announced in 2014 by Columbia West Properties and Pineapple Hospitality with the sale of the southwest corner of 2nd and Virginia for $16 million. [2] A 39-story high-rise tower at the site had previously been proposed in 2008 by Columbia West as part of a twin residential and hotel project. [3] The initial design, made by Ankrom Moisan Architects in 2015, was a 17-story hotel with 208 rooms and retail that would incorporate the Terminal Sales Annex. [4] Pacific Eagle, the U.S. arm of Hong Kong-based real estate company Great Eagle Holdings, acquired the property in December 2016 for $18 million. [5]

Pacific Eagle unveiled new plans for a 42-story hotel on the site in 2018 and hired Kengo Kuma & Associates to redesign the project. [6] [7]
