City and community leaders gathered today to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Caravan Court Hotel redevelopment project, a partnership with Valencia Hotel Group, Division Hotel Management, LLC and the City of Arlington.
Formerly the site of the Caravan Motel property on the southeast corner of Collins and Division streets, the project will pay homage to the historic Bankhead Highway, including restoration and re-use of the iconic Caravan Motor Hotel sign. The 145-room upper upscale boutique hotel will feature a unique luxury retro-style ‘motor court’ concept and mid-century aesthetic.
“There’s a history here that goes back decades. The reason this is so important is we will begin to cross-pollinate our Downtown and our Entertainment District, and bring those two wonderful districts together in a way that’s never been done before,” said Mayor Jim Ross.
The Caravan Court Project will also bolster efforts to change land use in the Division Street Corridor, which has been a City policy objective for over 20 years.
