WASHINGTON, D.C. — Birchington LLC is set to break ground on a $93 million, 247-room Holiday Inn Express in Washington, D.C. The hotel is expected to open in late 2020. Birchington, which developer Habte Sequar owns, received a construction loan from Atlanta-based Stonehill Strategic Capital for the project. The 14-story hotel will be situated at the corner of 4th and K streets, three blocks from the historic Carnegie Library and the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The design and management team include BBGM Architects, general contractor Kinsley Construction Inc. and property manager Urgo Hotels & Resorts.
