Thanks to lockmat for discovering this one. A Hyatt Regency is planned, but anyone know the exact location?

Makes sense that it would be near the Galleria, though honestly I think there is also a shortage of hotel space in/near the TMC.  I think that Mariott is almost always booked with out of town guests seeking medical treatment or there for a loved one.  I'm guessing the new hotels in downtown can accomodate some of them?

It looks like the low-rise portion of that rendering may be a re-hab of the existing shopping strip along Sage, with the hotel being added on the current surface lot at the corner of Sage and Alabama.

Looking at the map it seems that would be the only place to add something. Looks like they would extend the retail to the street too, doesn't it?

Towerspotter, do you have a reference for that? It's not ringing a bell for me.

Edit: that would be on the north east corner Towerspotter.

Sigh of relief.

This. I had noticed much of the shops there have started to vacate the past couple of weeks

An Atlanta developer has broken ground on a hotel next to the Houston Galleria, the newest real estate project in an area that's seen a surge of development in recent years.

 

The property, a 325-room Hyatt Regency, is being developed by a partnership between Songy HighRoads and the Carlyle Group at the northwest corner of Sage Road and West Alabama.

 

Most of the retail space will be demolished to make room for the new hotel.

Songy said the shopping space was only about half full when the property was purchased. Two retailers, a spa and a tailor, will stay in the complex.

 

Designed by Gensler, the Hyatt will have 350-square-foot rooms, 20 suites, 15,000 square feet of meeting space and a large fitness center overlooking a pool deck. The hotel will be 14 stories tall and total 260,000 square feet.

 

Aimbridge Hospitality will manage the property when it opens in late 2015.
