Renovation and Reopening as Lightwell Hotel and Spa

In 2023, the Waucoma Hotel building began an extensive renovation to restore its original function as a hotel. The redevelopment, led by Carrington "Ceb" Barrs and Gabriel Genauer, aims to modernize the historic structure while preserving its architectural character. The project includes structural and seismic upgrades, expansion of the basement level, and the installation of a replica of the original rooftop trellis. The updated hotel, renamed Lightwell Hotel and Spa, will feature 69 guest rooms, a rooftop bar, a Mediterranean restaurant, a hot tub, and spa facilities offering massage services. The boutique hotel is slated to open in July 2025. [4]
