“Water Street is seeing tremendous growth along the downtown Dayton riverfront,” the developers said in their announcement in January 2016. “The hotel … is the next piece in the overall Water Street District master plan.”
The Fairfield Inn is being raised at the northeast corner of Patterson Boulevard and Monument Avenue.
“Good or bad, the downtown hotel stock is a little tired, despite some improvements that have been made,” Jason Woodard, principal of Woodard Development, told the Greater Downtown Priority Land Use Board last April, as the board voted to support the project. “This offers another alternative.”
A message was left for Woodard Tuesday.
