It's about general developments. Feel free to ignore the thread if you have nothing to say.

"I thought a Marriott Marquis was already under construction at 9th and Mass? Is there going to be something else at CityCenter?"

Duh, stupid of me not to mention this in the original post! Construction is well underway there for what will be one of the largest hotels in DC. And I believe they are constructing two additional Marriott's within blocks of the convention center, as opposed to the earlier plans which called for a larger Marquis hotel. There is also a Marriott Courtyard Hotel currently being constructed in Foggy Bottom.

"The CityCenter development is a few blocks south on the site of the old convention center, but it won't include a hotel until a second phase of construction begins."

Yup. But when the second phase gets built, it will be a great opportunity for a luxury brand to build a new property in the heart of downtown.
