White Lodging Adding Second Property in Downtown Fort Wayne
White Lodging broke ground on its Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Fort Wayne Downtown in Fort Wayne, IN. Slated to open in the summer of 2019, the 136-key upper-midscale hotel will be next-door to another White Lodging property, the Courtyard Fort Wayne Downtown, which opened in 2010.
“In 2007, the City of Fort Wayne reached out to us with the opportunity to build a hotel which would anchor a key element of a new economic engine for the city,” said Deno Yiankes, president and CEO, investments and development at White Lodging. “Today, it’s exciting to continue that vision with a second hotel.”
Yiankes added that the new property not only represents “one of our nation’s most respected and well-known premium brands,” but is also designed and localized “specifically to honor the great location on Jefferson Boulevard, adjacent to the Grand Wayne Convention Center and Parkview Field.”
