DULUTH, Minn.
Plans have resurfaced for a three-story hotel at Harbor Cove Marina on Park Point, near a nine-story hotel planned for the marina next door.
This time around, the Harbor Cove hotel project has been downsized to 55 rooms, instead of 116, though a second phase could be added later, according to Marina officials. Plans remain for a pool and meeting rooms in the 13,000-square-foot structure.
Its design, including 48-foot towers and ornate touches, was inspired by the Duluth Boat Club clubhouse that stood on the site in the early 1900s and was the social center of Duluth for years.
Since the project was first brought forward, Joel Johnson, owner of Lakehead Boat Basin next door, brought forth plans for a larger, $22 million hotel development at his marina. That project will be called project Park Pointe Inn at Lakehead Boat Basin.
