LATROBE, PA. — A joint venture between Palmer Hospitality, Concord Hospitality and Keith McGraw has announced plans to develop a new Springhill Suites hotel in Latrobe. The four-story building will have 109 suites and will be located near the intersection of routes 30 and 981. It is directly across from Kennametal Inc., the area's largest employer, and within a short distance from Latrobe Country Club, the home course of Palmer's Hospitality's owner, Arnold Palmer. The building is being designed for LEED certification. Construction will begin in December, and completion is expected by the end of 2011.
