Marriott converted two large office buildings into hotels after the first phase of the Convention Center was built in the 90's. This was on top of Marriott and Hilton both building new hotels in the same vicinity. I seriously doubt there will be any trouble finding a hotel to invest in the corner of Broad and Arch in the wake of the expansion.
