Developers, construction workers and other personnel are preparing to open The Hotel at the University of Maryland in a little less than a year, which will create about 500 jobs within the College Park community.
The nine-story, $140 million dollar project — often referred to as the city's anchor by various officials — was approved in August 2014 and is slated to open its doors early in summer 2017, said Ken Ulman, chief strategy officer for economic development for this university's College Park Foundation.
