The Syndicate is coming.
It's not as sinister as it sounds. The Syndicate is a new Marriott hotel that has been planned for quite a while but has recently turned from a hole in the ground to an active worksite. It is just east of Hotel Indigo and will have a rooftop dining option which I am very much in favor of. At 110 rooms, it will be a decent sized room with a great location, just across Grandview Parkway from the West Bay.
Some of the delay in building came from the contaminated ground. This area had been an industrial area for many years and has finally gotten to a point that is close enough to workable. As long as it isn't built on an Indian burial ground I'm all for a new hotel / dining option in Traverse City.
