This was already a hotel/motel, and it's located on a commercial strip. Central Avenue is not residential. People choose to live close to Central Ave because they want to be close to an urban/walkable area, including shops, cafes, and yes hotels.
I'm disappointed that the Marriott owns it, as opposed to a local business, but it looks beautiful and should increase foot traffic.
I also hate driving down Central so I take the one-ways. This area of Central should prioritize pedestrians. Drivers can use the one-way and park on Silver Ave when enjoying the shops, bars, cafes, theaters etc. This also leaves more parking available for those with mobility issues who do need to park on Central.On 05/01/2025 12:47 PM MDT Susan Beard via Neighbors_nobhill-nm <neighbors_nobhill-nm@mailman.swcp.com> wrote:1. I am very concerned about how guests leaving the hotel will travelnorth from the hotel. Carlisle between Central and Lomas is a 2 lanestreet that already backs up at rush hour. Washington has a similarproblem and lacks a left turn bay. Guests can not turn left from thehotel due to mediums along Central. Girard between Lomas and Central isalso not designed to carry heavy traffic. I'd hate to see trafficgridlock in our mostly residential neighborhoods. There are many lovelyhomes on all three streets. Traffic gridlock will most likely negativelyaffect their market value.2. Many people that I know refuse to travel on Central due to thedifficulty of making a left turn. The green turn arrows only stay onlong enough for a limited number of cars to turn and sometimes the turnbay gets so full of cars that all cars needing to turn can not accessthe turn bay. 112 more cars will exacerbate this problem.Thank you, Susan Beard_______________________________________________Neighbors_nobhill-nm mailing listNeighbors_nobhill-nm@mailman.swcp.comhttps://mailman.swcp.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/neighbors_nobhill-nmThis Message Sent To: shanirachel@comcast.net
