The Landmark Hotel is a proposed nine-story, 100-room luxury hotel to be located on the Downtown Mall. The site is a former Central Fidelity bank building.
The real estate and project is owned by Halsey Minor[1][2]. Stephen Blaine is his attorney for the project[3].
Prior owners of the project included Lee Danielson and Oliver Kuttner, and other names used for the project in the past are The Beacon-Charlottesville and Hotel Charlottesville[4].
Approvals
- The Charlottesville Board of Architectural Review approved the plans on February 20, 2008[4].
- Landmark Hotel developer given permission to take down black granite facade, Sean Tubbs, Charlottesville Tomorrow, October 22, 2008, retreived 26 Aug. 2009.
Construction
At groundbreaking on March 11, 2008, the opening was scheduled for July 2009[5][1].
Financing controversy threatened the project as early as November 2008, and Silverton Bank, the project's lender, eventually was subject of a bank failure[6].
Lee Danielson was the developer of the project until Minor fired him in December 2008[2].
Construction stopped in January of 2009[3].
