Loews Hotels, The Cordish Companies, and the Texas Rangers have announced plans to invest $150m in a new hotel and convention centre in Arlington, Texas.
The proposed 302-room hotel called 'Live! by Loews – Arlington, TX' will come up at Texas Live!, a $250m dining, entertainment and hospitality destination being developed in partnership between The Cordish Companies, Texas Rangers and City of Arlington.
Arlington Mayor Jeff Williams said:"An upscale hotel in the entertainment district has long been a dream for Arlington and we couldn't be more excited to see that dream become a reality with the addition of a Loews branded hotel.
"With this announcement, we have just combined three world-class businesses with a world-class destination. This is a home run for Arlington and its residents and visitors."
The 14-storey glass tower has been designed by US-based architecture firm HKS Architects and will feature several resort-style spaces and amenities.
Spread over an area of 35,000ft², the Grand Event Center at the hotel will feature a glass façade with views of Texas Live! entertainment district.
